Solvang
Worldmark Solvang is the last place we stayed on our San Francisco road trip before heading home. It’s under 4 hours to get to LA.

The Latin Chef
I like walking through Liberty Public Market. You never know what you will find.

Solomon Bagels & Donuts
I love North Park with it’s cute Craftsman houses. I lived here from kindergarten through 3rd grade. My mom took my walking throughout the neighborhood. There were many cool local shops. A few blocks down 30th ST was a fabric store my mom would buy fabrics to sew shirts for me. Around where Solomon Bagels & Donuts is now located was an awesome hobby shop with model rockets and remote control planes. We could not afford to buy anything inside the hobby shop back then. I have a job now so I went inside Solomon Bagels & Donuts and bought a bunch of goodies.

Corner Bakery
The UTC Corner Bakery is an interesting location. Originally Sears occupied the entire building. Then Corner Bakery burrowed out a corner of Sears and came into existence. The most interesting part is now Sears has closed but Corner Bakery is doing great. I have eaten here a bunch of times.

Dumpling Inn / 4625 Convoy Street San Diego, CA 92111
First off I’d like to point out how delectable their food is! Each inviting dish choice did not last long as we ate it all.

Chicago Fire Grill
Pita bread scent filled the car. Owner George must have put it on the grill along with the steak. I ordered a steak pita and it was ready after about 10 minutes. Big juicy pieces of steak were overflowing the pita bread. I noticed char marks from the grill. Pita was fluffy and delicious. Loved the mix of flavors from the fresh pita, the juicy tomatoes, and steak.

Barrio Donas
I loved visiting Tijuana when I was a kid. Mexican bakeries were easy to find and the scent of fresh baked goodness wafted into the streets. Inside you grabbed a big aluminum tray and a pair of thongs. Racks of fresh baked goodies waited for you to choose from. I always picked a concha. Barrio Donas opened in 2019 and has a new and shiny look and feel. Very different from the old school bakeries like Panchitas I usually go to.
