Some interesting stuff, based on the 92121 and 92123 zip code.
The San Diego Night Market debuts September 28th:
A few weeks back, I had a nice dinner with "DanielT", whose family is wired into the Linda Vista/Kearny Mesa area. During our conversation he mentioned plans for a San Diego Night Market, which I assume is modeled after the way busy 626 Night Market. So just the past week, FOY "YummyYummy" sent me more info on this. Apparently, the San Diego Night Market makes its maiden voyage on September 28th in the parking lot of Zion Market. I recall mentioning that I'd hope the market was on private property, which would give the folks running the thing more control. I know some folks who have gone to the 626 Night Market and the biggest complaints were the crowds (long lines), prices, and for those food lovers, pretty much underwhelming food choices. I'm hoping we get to taste some good eats, not regurgitated fair food, or over-hyped money grab cuisine.
Anyway, you can go to The SD Night Market Site or the Convoy District website. This will be a great organization test. It'll be interesting at the least to see if it can be pulled off successfully.

B.H. Chung closes to be replaced by…..
So, I was told that B.H. Chung had closed. I drove by during a weekday lunch hour and it was indeed closed.
It was indeed closed. My sources tell me the new lessees are Chinese. Still not 100% sure what type of restaurant it will be. Stay tuned…..

Green Shallot to open.
I was wondering what was up with the former Mama Jamaica's location. Apparent it's (yet) another Thai Restaurant. This one called Green Shallot.
"Thai Gourmet Express"? Sigh….. Right across the street from where Dusit opened and closed before I even had a chance to visit. I quizzed some folks about the place and the best thing they ate there was some Sate Burrito thingy? I hope this is better, though I'm not opposed to Sate Burrito thingies…really.
