As I've mentioned in other posts, the past year, now year and a half has gone by in a flash. Our schedules have made it difficult at times to get back into our routines. Finally, after several trips, a heck of a lot of work, things are settling down. And we're getting back to those places that need no introduction for those who've been reading our little blog over the years.
Taisho:
It's been a while since we checked out Taisho; a least 4-5 months! For a place we used to visit every week.
It's still as good as ever. Now open seven days a week.
I'm hoping we can make it back more often.
Yakitori Taisho
5185 Clairemont Mesa Blvd.
San Diego, CA 92117
Tiger! Tiger!:
Now that it's warming up; the Missus is in the mood to return to Tiger! Tiger! After a bit of a slump, it seems the food here has returned to form.
The "Ramen Sausage" was the oddest sounding item we came across. It turned out to be delicious. The sausage kind of had the flavor of a chicken-ramen broth. It was a nice surprise as we were ready to not like it.
Tiger! Tiger!
3025 El Cajon Blvd
San Diego, CA 92104
Zarlitos:
When it gets too warm for our usual weekend breakfasts at Aqui es Texcoco; it's time to head back to Zarlitos. These days, the Missus actually orders the Poke-silog.
Zarlitos Family Restaurant
505 East 8th St.
National City, CA 91950
To all of you who still read the blog after all these years; I think this is post #3851 or something like that. We thank you!
As does Frankie.
Hope everyone is having a great week!
glad your routine places don’t disappoint!

Wow, that's a lot of posts! Kudos to you and Cathy! I still have to try Zarlitos one of these days. I do enjoy your informative posts along with Cathy's and still enjoy reading Ed's old entries.

You managed to capture Taka-san in a photo. He's very camera shy. Ramen sausage sounds interesting. Will have to try it next time I'm there. How about beer ramen? https://www.theramenrater.com/2018/06/17/beer-ramen-canada/

That's interesting Junichi. I actually want to try some mushroom beer:

We've put in quite a bit of mileage over the years Lynnea!
Frankie thanks you Kirbie!
