Restaurant Review: Nobu, Hard Rock Hotel, San Diego

What’s the curbappeal?
- I loved the gorgeous high-end contemporary interior by The Rockwell Group: think glossy leather couches paired with hardwood tables and amber lighting. The onyx sushi bar is simply stunning.
- I didn’t try the food as I just popped in to check out the interior but, it has a Michelin star so it’s likely to be very good. I perused the menu and some dishes that caught my eye include: Bluefin Toro Tartare with Caviar, Wagyu Beef Sashimi and Black Cod with Miso and Yellowtail Jalapeno.

With Love,

Restaurant Review: GRANT GRILL, San Diego, California

What’s the curbappeal?
- ‘Contemporary Art Deco’ interior
- Sophisticated and glamorous vibe
- Formal dining experience: perfect for power-meetings over breakfast, lunch or dinner

I popped in for breakfast and tried the honey crumble cereal with assorted berries and yogurt. Crunchy, tasty and filing! I also had a cafetiere of good-quality rich coffee. I mulled over a couple of other breakfast options: ‘Banana Bread French Toast: candied pistachios, golden raisins and glazed bananas with cinnamon maple syrup’, the ‘Spa breakfast: egg whites, goats cheese, olives, grilled onions and peppers’ and, their ‘Breakfast Collection’ of mini-cocktails including the ‘Mini Maple Manhattan - sapling maple liqueur and Jim Beam rye whiskey with old fashioned bitters’. How decadent!

It’s just gorgeous…I’ll be back…

With Love,
