Thursday 2.11.10

I went to the Nickel Diner in downtown LA before catching my train back to SD. A few people had told me about this place after they heard about it on that show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.

Talk about sugar overload! This is a maple glazed bacon donut. I think it goes without saying that I had felt like I had died and gone to heaven. I would even consider living in Los Angeles for this.

Red velvet donut with cream cheese frosting inside. I was hoping for the donut to be red velvety but this was still pretty damn good.

And what sugary breakfast wouldn’t include a homemade pop tart?

I ordered eggs but didn’t bother with pictures. What is the point really?

Friday 2.12.10 was fairly uneventful …I went to happy hour at Bareback and I went home to spend some time with my DVR.

Saturday 2.13.10 was a gorgeous day in San Diego and I had big plans to go to this rare cheese/gourmet chocolate/fine wine event at the Hotel Del Coronado at their wine bar called Eno and after rounding up the troops (Rich and Chris and Chris’s sister) I thought it might be a good idea to call and see what the deal was with the event. Annnnnnd…….. that is when they told me it was sold out. Mind you Chris was outside my place waiting to pick me up when I had the bright idea to get organized. What a moron. Epic fail on my end. We ended up going to to the Fish Market on the harbor to have some wine and snacks and watch the sunset. It wasn’t a total waste of a day… but definitely not what I had planned and not the way to do things.

Smoked fish platter.

Ahi poke and spicy tuna roll.

Two of my favorite mo’s: Chrichard and Richtopher. They are very different but one in the same.
