A Steak? Other than sea food, I haven't really had a meal in the San Diego/Aneheim/Long Beach area that was up to par or my expectations for price. I used to spend quite a bit of time in the area on business. |

The Mexican food here is amazing (tons of amazing hole-in-the-wall places), as is the Thai, and fresh local seafood. There are some fantastic Americana places in Hillcrest, as well as some great breakfast spots. I wouldn't consider SD a food destination, other than Mexican food, but on the whole, I've found the food options to be varied and tasty. No complaints. |

I should note that any time I think about moving out of Denver, I remember that we don't have fleas, ticks, or roaches here. (Well, other than Elway.)

The hell you trying to eat a steak and pizza in San Diego for? If you're in San Diego you eat burritos. Nothing but the endless variety of burritos and they're the best anywhere north of the border. |

Just guessing, but I have probably had close to at least a couple hundred meals in the area. To be honest, I am talking Anaheim where I spent at least five days every year all the way down to the Torrey Pines golf course area. I have played a lot of golf courses down there and of course the meals would have been in that proximity but I will be darned if I could name a single one of the places I have eaten at. Qualcomm was a really big customer in the area at one time so I would spend several nights a year near their facility. The Mrs. spent a week down there once with me and she felt the same way I did about the food when judging it against similar size cities. Don't get me wrong, it has some the best weather on the planet and we have had some great times there. San Francisco is the home of my favorite restaurant in the country, Tadich Grill. |

Now my Mrs. loves the Mexican food and would make a steady diet of the stuff. Have you ever tried to pick a healthy meal off a Mexican restaurant menu? Carbs, fat and mega calories. |

My first few weeks in SD, I think I had a burrito a day. Probably put on 10lbs, lol, but so worth it. I take every visitor to get a Cali burrito from my favorite place, and it never fails to impress.

It was really hard for me to adjust to non-city life—even if just the burbs. Too quiet. Have to drive everywhere to get stuff. Too many chain restaurants. I miss cosmopolitan life from time to time still. So I would love a condo in a city and keep my home here.
