Let's Eat San Diego: A bazillion years ago in San Diego, broke writers would gather at the Bahia Hotel's restaurant for free hors' d'oeuvres, notably sweet and sour meatballs, cheese cubes and crudites. Nothing vogue in hotel dining, not till the Hyatt Regency La Jolla opened Japengo and introduced us to Hollywood, jaw-dropping sushi and Pacific Rim cuisine. Vegas hotels wooed celebrity chefs and high concept restaurants, and San Diego followed suit. We're enjoying these hotel hotspots, especially during San Diego Restaurant Week Sept. 16-21.
Cook's Corner: Roast your fall vegetables, little Popeye, from carrots to parsnips drizzled with olive oil, salt, pepper and a few sprigs of roasted lamb or pork. Don't want to make your dill pickles this season? Lynnaesgourmetpickles.com quells the dill vs. sweet debate with my new favorite, Hot Mama gourmet pickles.
Upcoming Events : San Diego Restaurant Week: The six-day celebration provides food lovers the opportunity to explore the region's exciting dining scene for a fraction of the normal expense. Diners can enjoy special three-course, prix fixe dinner menus for just $20, $30 or $40 per person (beverages, tax and gratuity not included) at more than 180 participating restaurants. San Diego Restaurant Week also includes lunch offerings, which give daytime diners the opportunity to feast on special two-course, prix fixe lunch menus for just $10, $15 or $20 per person at participating restaurants.
Elsewhere Edibles: Email [email protected] with your favorite coffeehouse or coffee around America. Just discovered Porto Rican Coffee (NYC) and Corktown Detroit's Astro Coffee. In Nashville, Roast Inc. Rare & Fine Coffee and local baked goods hitthe spot.
