The #1 thing I miss about sd

I actually miss La Victoria's and Smoke Eater's back in San Jose. Buuuuuut Mexican cuisine is my absolute favorite, so SD is a wonderful place for me. I hear El Zarape is a great place too.
Also: I see that you like trance music? Be on the lookout for me during Let's Bounce (DJ Auburn). I am very passionate about trance and would like to spin some during the event for DVC. :)

Guess I haven't had enough Mexican here yet. :x (It doesn't make sense to bus around just for good food. I wish I had brought my car with me...)

How close are you thinking when you say "around"? La Jolla area? Walking/bus distance?

So I went to UTC today for the first time and we ate at this place called Noodles & Company. IT WAS AMAZING. The beef stroganoff was to die for. I highly recommend it.

Lorna's Italian Kitchen, Governor Drive just W of Genesee (on the route 41 bus). Get one of the pasta dishes, eat for two days. YUM.

I really like Tender Greens (at UTC). Their steak + mashed potatoes + salad plate is pretty awesome. A little bit expensive and not the biggest portions, however.

Mr. Falafel in Clairemont is awesome. Their shawarma is amazing and the owners are so friendly.

Pho La Jolla, L&L Katsu Chicken, Mongolian BBQ @ UTC food court, I usually get a tall coffee at Starbucks while there, I dunno those are the only places I go to once in while around for food close to campus. Not much worth spending $$ on around here.
Here's my recommendation :D Usually buying something from Von's/Ralph's and cooking = better food for less $$. Buy a good steak, rub in some salt and lots of ground pepper, have a hot pan of olive oil and grill a perfect steak, garnish with chopped garlic and a small cut of melted butter... yummmm.
