So.. What to do for lunch.. ? (And I was actually feeling like something different.. Seeing as I skipped breakfast and was still feeling full from last night's feast.. )
Well.. Thank god for food trucks! Two for the road was in the Copley cul de sac today. Interesting menu, burgers, chicken, etc. But the lobster roll caught my eye. Yummy. Bun was great, lobster was good, not overly mayo'ed up and fresh and tasty. The Mexican diet coke in a glass bottle was a great touch and the free cookie was almost as good as the cookie place at the local farmers markets.
I have already subscribed to the RSS feed for this truck. Will frequent again!

World Curry
Might call this PB weekend.
Today we wanted something different. And I have been wanting to try the Thai curry place in PB for quite some time. Thai, Indian and English curries all served in a casual setting, right on Garnet avenue.
We started with the Samosas. They were good, fresh and served with a nice sauce. Tasty. If anything they were a tad on the greasy side, but very enjoyable.
Bobbi had the Golden curry bowl. It was fresh and tasty. Served on a bed of brown rice, it was just the right size for lunch, and packed with flavor. I never really tasted it fully, I had already had a few fork fulls of the Phall.. Whats Phall you say? Normally when a place serves something "spicy" it just isn't that spicy. This Phall was, well, as advertised. Probably the hottest thing I have had in a restaraunt in a long time. Like the golden curry, it was fresh, tasty and most enjoyable. I have been looking for really hot food in SD, and I found it here. Will be back. For Phall.
Next time I will take down a whole order of Phall. Eat it in 30 minutes, and my name will go on the wall!

Costa Brava
Have you ever walked into a place and felt like you were entering another world, or at least another country? Well, last night Terry and I went to Spain for a couple of hours to enjoy tapas and a little 'us' time.
Costa Brava is a hidden little gem in Pacific Beach. The outside of the restaurant is covered in climbing ivy which acts as a natural barrier to the street just outside the door. When you pass through the gate and go up the steps you are automatically transported into the heart of Spain. The wait staff greets you with a smile and their authentic Castilian lisps which only add to the relaxed ambiance.
The food at Costa Brava is amazing! We ordered lamb skewers, olives with anchovies, sardines, escargot, tuna wrapped in pastry, mushrooms in wine sauce, and lovely little dates wrapped in bacon. It seems impossible that such small portions could pack in so much flavor and satisfy so completely, but they did. I am sure that we will go back again and again.
Amé el alimento y la atmósfera. Estaré detrás otra vez.
Costa Brava
