Until recently, the only ramen I ever had was Top Ramen. My grandpa would always make it for me when I was younger and I still continued to eat it throughout college (mostly because I was broke). The first time I had actual ramen that wasn’t Top Ramen was at Underbelly. A lot of people…

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…
Urth Caffe
Urth Caffe is one spot I love to go to for a nice cup of coffee and I honestly think they have some of the best latte art around. Not only do they have a great selection of coffee and tea, but their food is amazing! Honestly, I’ve only had their pizzas and benedicts….
Mochi Ice Cream
That is all.
Hot n Sour Soup- PF Chang’s
There’s a bunch of great food at PF Chang’s. They have gluten free and vegetarian options which is a plus, but the one I’d like to talk about specifically is their hot n sour soup. Random, right? I was at the one in Emeryville in the Bay Area when the waiter specifically suggested this soup…
Banana Toffee Creme Pie from McKormick and Kuleto’s
My favorite pie is banana creme pie. In high school, Marie Callender’s would have these $6 pie sales and I would totally get the banana creme ones and I swear I would devour the whole thing by myself in a day. Another thing I love about desserts is when toffee is added to it. Add…
Loving Hut- Vegan Cuisine
Loving Hut is a vegan restaurant mainly specializing in Asian dishes. They also have Western dishes such as burgers, chicken nuggets, and fries. There’s two in San Diego and a huge number of others all over the United States. I’ve been here a few times and the reason is because I’m not totally in love…
Fresh Uni! (sea urchin)
I think the best farmer’s market in San Diego is the one that takes place in Little Italy in downtown from 8am-2pm. Besides all the music, foodtrucks, produce, and other specialty items you can find, you can also find fresh uni or sea urchin. It’s caught fresh that morning. So fresh that it’s still moving….
