Last Sunday I “parked in rear” and had an outstanding breakfast at Kountry Kitchen. Being a Sunday it was slammed, but service was still good and quick. I ordered a basic two egg & meat w/ potato choice and toast or biscuit. This was a substantial meal! I chose hash browns, which could have been…

Second time we’ve been to this place. Definitely an experience with the elementary school furniture and all. Best part was the roaring fire on a cold winter night. Here’s a combo with taco, enchilada, tamale, etc. Review by Dan Edwards Published January 2014 at Food Observations Republished here with permission. Other Links for El Michoacan…

Moons Over My-Hammy. The ubiquitous midnight meal. It was a late night last night…Wendy’s dining room was closed. Only the drive-thru open. Sorry, but I don’t care for eating in the car when I have a choice. Review by Dan Edwards Published March 2015 at Food Observations Republished here with permission. Other Links for Ramona…

Here’s a rare mid-week burger last Tuesday! We went to our local Ramona Denny’s because kids eat free on Tuesday (and Monday). Now that could be a double-edged sword, but it all worked out great. I’m surprised the place wasn’t more crowded. They have a fair selection of specialty burgers along with a comprehensive “build…

Finally tried the burger menu at Nuevo Grill recently. Their burger selections are simple and straight forward, with 6 to choose from, including a Buffalo Burger. Side choices include fries, or BBQ beans. I ordered the Sonoran Burger for $10.99. It’s a half pound burger topped with mild green chiles, jack cheese and ancho chile…

My wife and I recently began a new review series on restaurant hamburgers in Ramona. Our inaugural burger for the new series was eaten at D’Carlos. First, the remodel is really nice. Layout seems the same, but feels much newer and cleaner inside. Lighting was on the dim side. Place was really cool on a…

We had outstanding burgers tonight at Cheers of Ramona! They have a reputation for serving some of the best hamburgers in town.  I can see why.  The overall menu is extensive, while the burger choices are lengthy, varied and unique. I chose the “Horseman”. For $10.99 it’s a 1/4 lb patty topped with American cheese, 1/4 lb…

Thai Time

What time is it? It’s Thai Time! Excellent dinner tonight. Sampled one of their fried rice dishes. They have about 6 styles to choose from – I ordered the Spicy Fried Rice. It’s made with stir fried rice, egg, garlic, basil, bell pepper, onion and chili. It’s prepared with your choice of meat/combo/vegetarian. I chose “combo”…

Lunch at The Par Lounge today… Probably one of the most beautifully constructed Cobb Salads I’ve ever had… From the Oaks Grille kitchen. I think I’ve only eaten about 5 or 6 Cobb Salads in my lifetime, but this is still top shelf. Perfect with the balsamic vinaigrette. Review by Dan Edwards First published at…

Recently for breakfast I had the pleasure of trying Pepe’s Tacos for the first time. Tucked just inside Pepe’s Produce, this place is the real deal! I ordered two tacos al pastor. Would you believe these are only $1.25 each?? They were excellent! Exceeded my expectations. You basically get the meat on torts and dress…
