One of my all time favorite ramen spots in San Diego is Rakiraki Ramen in Convoy. Their noodles alone are bomb af like who needs broth anyway? So one day I decided to try something different which is the recently hyped ramen burger. I actually still have no words for it and I’m not sure…

85C Bakery
More than just hype, this place is amazing! I remember random trips to Orange County and seeing a huge line for this place. I never got to try it because I didn’t feel like waiting that long for some pastries. 85C Bakery is now more accessible and now has 17 locations in Southern California and…
Great Maple
Why is it that most brunch places have a really long wait? I usually don’t like waiting more than 40 minutes for a table when I eat (unless planned way in advance and I have a snack), but this place is an exception! It’s one of those places where literally everything on the menu is…
Corndogs from Kobey’s Swap Meet
The BEST corndog I ever had was from Kobey’s Swap Meet in San Diego. I love hot dogs in general, but what makes this corndog different is the batter! I don’t know what it is, but it’s like pancake and cornbread batter in one. I introduced this to a friend and we may or may…
D Bar (RIP)
One of my favorite places has closed down! I’m so sad. D Bar (dinner, desserts, drinks) was in the heart of Hillcrest. I had some fun times there and the best tiramisu I ever had! They had a great happy hour and everything there filled my heart (and stomach) with joy. I will always remember…
Ube Bacon Donut at DK’s Donuts
I LOVE sweet and savory together… I also like eating weird food. So if you don’t have the same tastebuds as me then you would probably think that this ube bacon donut is disgusting. (It’s not.)
Smoked Salmon Lox at Bruxie
Waffles are another wonderful invention that can be delicious both sweet and/or savory. I tried Bruxie for the first time and had their smoked salmon lox. It was pretty good! I loved that their waffles were so simple, not too sweet or anything. They have so much on their menu that I wanted all at…
Quinoa Burger from True Food Kitchen
It’s so hard being on a low carb diet when you’re craving a burger. True Food satisfies that craving with the quinoa burger! Instead of regular buns, they’re quinoa buns!
Tiramisu from Hans and Harry’s
If you grew up in San Diego, I’m sure you grew up with fruit tarts from Hans and Harry’s. They were at EVERY family party! And if your family was down, you know they had the extra long one. Another dessert to try or have at your next family party is the tiramisu! It’s my…
Milk
Milk is really popular for its macaron ice cream sandwiches. They really do live up to the hype! It’s the perfect combination of macaron and ice cream. It’s not too frozen solid so it’s ready to be eaten once you get it! They also have ice cream popsicles that are just as good also!
