I love eating Japanese tapas because I like to try different things. Wa Dining OKAN serves dishes that I haven’t had before, specifically their Gobo Salad and their Pudding with Black Honey for dessert. Gobo, in English, is known as greater burdock.

Of all the cakes I ate this past weekend in San Diego, the Irish Angel cake from Heaven Sent Desserts tops them all. It’s decadent and … heaven-sent. The cake is rich and moist, not too sweet, and layered with Bailey’s creme brulee – perfect for chocolate lovers. The cake is $7 and is good [...]

Another hot spot I visited in San Diego was The Incredible Cheesecake Company. They make New York style cheesecake, We tried their white chocolate raspberry cheesecake and it was good. Unlike cheesecake from Junior’s Cheesecake or The Cheesecake Factory, theirs is just a bit on the softer and mushier side (and also only about $3.50 [...]

We weren’t sure what to get because there were just so many different types of cakes to [...]

The sandwich was packed with savory, juicy, and fatty pieces of slow-roasted pork, placed between sliced focaccia bread and cut into triangle halves, and served with a side of home-made potato chips. $9.50 for [...]

Cupcakes at Babycakes are nice and moist. They’re not my favorite, but they’re pretty good, especially if you like your cakes big and dense. There are tons of flavors, from usual flavors like vanilla and red velvet to somewhat usual flavors like pistachio and mocha to not so usual flavors like guava/mango and blood orange. [...]

I’ve been wanting to try the fish tacos at Mama Testa Taqueria in San Diego ever since I saw it featured in Throwdown with Bobby Flay on the Food Network. This was our first stop after we landed in San Diego. We ordered the Mividita for $10, which is two crunchy fish tacos: deep fried [...]
