Food Scene

For authentic Mexican street tacos, it doesn't get better than El Gordo. My favorites are the adobada, carne asada, and lengua. Their ordering system is "interesting" to say the least--you need to line up each time for getting a different meat item. So it is better to go in a group so that each person can line up for one type of orders.

For authentic northern Chinese dumpling and noodle dishes, you will be surprised to find this gem at the heart of Hillcrest only a mile from our property. I think they even make their own noodles. Their price is also very reasonable.

For extraordinary desserts, you really need to visit Extraordinary Desserts. But be forewarned for a long ordering line there, especially during the after dinners hours post 9 p.m. I love to enjoy their cakes with a cup of hot fruity tea.

There are a number of really interesting restaurants, brewery, ice-cream, and coffee places right around our immediate neighborhood along India street (1.3 miles away). If you are not sure what kind of cuisine you want to have yet, then having a stroll down India street should help you settle your decision.

Sightseeing

For a bird's eye view of San Diego. This lighthouse at the hill top of Point Loma is a must-see. It is operated by the National Park Service, so you do need to purchase a pass to enter.

This 2nd largest wooden structure in the United States with its iconic red roof tops has been visited by 16 American president thus far. The Pacific ocean greets you on the South (Hotel Del) side of the island, and if you trek over to the North side of the island, you will be greeted by the stunning San Diego skyline with the calm water of the San Diego bay in front of you.

Parks & Nature

It is not usual to see seals swimming in the water or resting on the rocks there. You won't confuse the place with Fiji, however, if you snorkel there, in addition to a garden variety of fish, barnacles, star fish, and anemones, you might encounter leopard sharks as well. A wet suit might be required depending on the water temperature.

Entertainment & Activities

If there is a place in San Diego that resembles the atmosphere of Coney Island, it would be the Belmont Park. Located at the center of Mission Beach, you will find many activities for the entire family including the very retro-looking wooden roller-coaster, miniature golf, merry-go-round, and arcade games all within a stone throw from the iconic beach.
