Restaurant Week in San Diego

Jan 12, 2011


Just eat it, eat it , eat it
Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter , it's broiled or fried
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it, ooh

Restaurant week is coming starting 1/16 through 1/21.  We started looking for new places to try.  Bridget got an email from the French Market Grille for a whole lobster for $18.00.  What better way to start the week off with a preveiw dinner.  The restaurant made it easy for us and removed the meat from the shell.  We didn't have to work for our dinner.

Our first official dinner for Restaurant Week was Peohe's in Coronado.  Nestled on the water’s edge in the Coronado Ferry Landing, Peohe’s offers breathtaking views of the downtown skyline and San Diego Bay. Since they are known for their seafood we both decided to try it. 

For those who forgot or are not familiar with Restaurant Week, it is 3 courses for $30 or $40.  I had the Crab-Stuffed Tilapia and Bridget had the Coconut Crunchy Shrimp. The food and service was good and we had a great seat to watch the city light up.

We picked the next restaurant because it is close to my work.  Randy Jones has been barbquing at Qualcomm and now Petco Park for years.  This is a new restaurant on the scene and we are always up for some barbeque. 

I ordered the Tri-Tip Beef Platter and Bridget ordered the Slo-Pitch BBQ Pork Ribs.  Both were good as we sampled each others dinner.

GREAT NEWS:  RESTAURANT WEEK IS EXTENDED ANOTHER WEEK

Jan 28, 2011

The next place we usually go there for Sunday Brunch.  It is excellent and well priced.  The great thing about Restaurant Week is we look at the menus to determine where to go.  Steak and Lobster well okay.  It was delicious.  We had another sucessful Restaurant Week.  Looking forward to September.

Their website describes the restaurant better than I can so here goes:

It would be difficult to find another restaurant with as much warmth and charm as the 94th Aero Squadron. Located inside a replica of a World War I French farmhouse, the restaurant sits overlooking Montgomery Field Airport, and is packed full of military memorabilia, antique farm implements, and aviation relics. The interior is cozy and romantic, with huge stone fireplaces, masses of hanging green plants, dark wood paneling, beamed ceilings, and old airplane wings hanging over the dining area. There are even headphones at some of the tables for diners to listen to the FAA control tower.
