Filippi's Pizza Grotto - we hit this one on the off chance when we saw a bunch of people going in. The restaurant has an Italian deli out front - you walk through to get to the dark restaurant where wine bottles hang from the ceiling. It was packed for dinner at 4.30 and I can see why. Salads, sandwiches and pasta dishes all come in huge portions and looked good. We split a pepperoni and sausage pizza - thick crust, lots of cheese, not too oily. We ate two slices each and took two home. Good stuff.
Dublin Square and Cafe Zucchero - we ate breakfast at each of these. Both served frankly awful food, though the coffee at Zucchero was good. An oily fry up at one, a breakfast burrito style dish literally swimming in liquid at the other. Enough said.
We went back to Cafe Chloe for breakfast on our last day in San Diego. Savoury custard was basically quiche without the pastry - an idea so good I'm going to rip if off at home. Gravlax was served with in a light tower of crepe with separate layers of egg white and yolk. Impressive. I wish I'd had time to try lunch or dinner there.
