I love cafes.

I really do.

They make me feel so at ease. But the ones I love most of all are the really quirky ones... the cluttered cafes with lots of crazy people sitting at mismatched tables. That's the type of place that makes me feel the most…More »

Bandar is delicious, and I have SD Yelpers and my friends to thank for simultaneously recommending it.

Extremely large portions, and all available for take-out. I grabbed an order of Zereshk Polo (Barberry Rice) and ate it on the top floor of Horton…More »

My life is changing.

A girl I was absolutely crazy about recommended two movies before she left town. It's weird when a person asks you to experience things that changed their life. The films become something of a diary. It's almost hard to watch. The…More »

Located in the 500 West Hotel. A nice, quaint place to grab a drink in the middle of the day (yeah, that's how I roll), and stays open well into the night. I was lucky enough to catch a $1 pint special before taking off to the airport.

Europeans are hip.

That is common knowledge. Though they may scoff at us and ridicule our immense waistlines, we still admire our slim-fitted brethren for their contribution to "cool."

Enter the 500 West Hotel: a Euro-inspired "hybrid hotel" (aka a…More »

Conflict defines us. Our social identities establish who we are in this chaotic world. It is our inherent nature to compete and battle via segregated unions:

West Coast Rap vs. East Coast Rap

Corporate Megatyrants vs. Vegan Treehuggers

Gryffindor vs.…More »

I wanted my San Diego trip to be the opposite of the social clusterbomb that was "Yelp does Las Vegas": solitary travel, reflection, and creating my own agendas. I rented a car and drove around, occasionally randomly, through this beautiful city. And…More »
