Midweek Miscellanea

yoso-silly

I thought I’d do a post about a few items, that I’ve been waiting to mention. So here goes….

The Brunch Master hits the Big Time!

I enjoy Jim’s(aka The Brunch Master) site San Diego Sunday Brunch. Talk about dedication! Jim and His lovely Wife have been to 44 Buffet style Sunday Brunches, and have started in on Menu Brunches as well. Jim’s site is not a review site, but is dedicated to informing us about prices, food, and other useful information. I know that I’ve used His site when trying to figure out which Brunch spot to hit.

So it’s only appropriate that Jim’s hit the "Big Time". On Friday, July 14th, News10, the local ABC affiliate will run a spot featuring Jim and His Brunchmaster Site. After the spot runs, there will be a live in studio section as well. So don’t miss it. The spot is set to run during the 4pm News time slot.

That’s Jim and his Wife with the Guys from News 10.

Congratulations Jim!

Howie hits a Half Million!

600,000 actually. That’s how many recipes you can access on Howie’s Foodieview Recipe Search Engine. Geez and I thought 330 posts was alot.

Curry House Coming to San Diego.

If you haven’t read the post on Chowhound, here’s the info. About 2 weeks ago, I heard that Curry House was coming to San Diego. So to confirm, I sent an Email to House Foods Corporation, the parent company of Curry House.

Here’s the response:

"Thank you for contacting us.

Yes, it is true that we will be opening a Curry House in San Diego.  It is planned for its grand opening sometime in the middle of September.
 
Furthermore, the address of the location is as follows:
-Sunrise Town Center
3860 Convoy St. #102
San Diego, CA  92111
If you have any further questions or need further assistance, please contact us back."
So good news for those Curry House fans in San Diego.
So where’s the food, you may ask?
Okay, just for the heck it:

It’s the Com Tam Nhu Y(i.e. Com Tam Dac Biet – Broken Rice special – $6.45) from where else, Nhu Y Restaurant. Not bad, the steamed egg was quite moist and good, though the slice was on the small side. The fried "tofu-cake" was crisp, though on the bland side. The BBQ Pork Chop was okay, moist, but very mild, and the shredded pork actually had some flavor, and was relatively moist.

Hope everyones week is going well.

  1. Yeah, Typepad kinda fell into a black hole yesterday, didn’t it? Wondering what the hell that was all about …
    Meanwhile: that Curry House looks like it’s going to be in the same shopping center as Nijiya Market, right? I wonder which storefront it’s going into. Having not experienced a Curry House myself, I’m not sure I’m totally ready for the Japanese take on spaghetti, but I’m certainly interested in the curry portion of their menu.

  2. Hi Mizducky – I believe it’ll be in the space formerly occupied by the old Asian Food Wholesaler, next to Shanghai City……that parking lot is going to get more and more crowded!

  3. Thanks for the shout out, Kirk!
    And 330 posts is a *lot*! I cheat and get robots to do all my work for me.

  4. Hey Kirk! Thanks for the post. The live shot is today (sweat, sweat). I’ll get through it. A hobby should not be this stressful!

  5. Hi Howie – Could you imagine “robots” doing all my blogging for me? We’d be done with San Diego in a month!
    Hi Jim – I made sure to watch, and think you did a great job. Plan to market “maternity pants for men” anytime soon? ;o)

  6. “Maternity pants for men” I only need them on Sunday…but, I started working on the design last week. However, with over 330 posts, how do you keep your girlish figure! Between you and Howie…I need to get busy to catch up!!!

  7. Hi Jim – Make sure you get the patent on those pants. I’m sure inventor’s are hard at work as we speak.
