Here's more stuff that I've seen recently.
Pho Paradise opening on Convoy:
Man, V Bakery barely lasted 6 months. Viet Bakery and Pho for not that much longer. So now, it's back to Vietnamese, something called Pho Paradise.
The "Pho" portion of the logo looks strangely familiar, but I just can't place it. I'm still hoping for decent pho in the Convoy-Kearny Mesa area……… I'm hoping this will at least be decent.

The Original Tofu House opening in Mira Mesa:
I saw this a couple of days ago and drove by yesterday to take a photo.
Quite a few Korean food places opening around Mira Mesa.
I believe this used to be Arby's????

Casa Medina has moved?:
I noticed that Casa Medina had closed on the way home the other day. So I dropped by after work today to check it out.
So it looked like the place has closed, until I turned around and saw the sign for Casa Medina along side that of the old Bismallah Restaurant above World Market & Produce.
So unless the market likes to collect signs of defunct restaurants, you can now get your Halal tacos inside of World Market & Produce.

Was it cold enough for you?
I thought it was pretty chilly this morning and checked my weather app. And did a double, no triple take….
Must be a malfunction, right? This would be the weather in the Bay Park area……and would also be colder than what we experienced in Seattle!
My Christmas dinner:
Both the Missus and I have been working quite a bit. She had to work on Christmas and after grilling a ton of chicken for Her potluck and making Her a separate lunch/dinner, I really didn't feel like doing anymore cooking. So I decided to head over to Sushi Yaro and Sam put together a nice sashimi combo for me between the zillion rolls.
It made for quite a feast. It was also nice seeing Sam; it had been a while. As a bonus, a couple of the "old-time" regulars whom I haven't seen in ages also dropped by, before the place got totally swamped. Sam mentioned that I've known him for about eleven years now! Time does fly…….

I hope you're having a great holiday season!
Nice Christmas dinner! I didn’t think that Arbys was very large; I still have to try the new tofu place down the street.
BTW, Tim Ky Noodle looked like it was open yesterday; unfortunately I didn’t have time to go check it out.
Hi Sandy – I hope you had a great Xmas. I thoguht I saw the “open” sign lit for Tim Ky….so hopefully I’ll be able to drop by sometime this week.
Had to scrape ice off the car windshield this morning…fortunately, still own an ice scraper. I know that Pho sign, too…will research.
Let me know if you recall/find something Cathy. I heard it’s going to be even colder, with rain tomorrow…..
39 degree? Yikes!
Hmmm, I remember going into the V Bakery just once earlier this year. They had a variety of desserts but also sold sandwiches.
Double yikes CC! Going to be a rather chilly New Year I think. Keep warm!
enjoy the holidays!
You too Kat!
It’s been cold over here in Yuma. A few spots close to freezing. That sashimi from Sammy at Yaro looks so good. Jeez, I think you’ve known Sammy for more than 11 years considering that I met him when he was at Katzra in May 2002.
Oops, I am wrong. Looking at my old CH post, kuni-san, not Sammy, was the chef at Katzra. My bad. The older I get, the more the wires get crossed or burnt out.
Hi Ed – You’re kind of right, Sam was at Katzra, but after Kuni sold the place and left around 2003.
