Jesse & Andrea's Guide To Crushing Local Food & Drinks: Pacific Beach
BFast: The Favorite Meal of the Day!
Breakfast at the beach is a favorite pastime for locals .. and boy, do we have some killer options! I consider myself a professional BFast'er, so here are my greatest hits that may or may not coincide with the Yelp's or the tourist books:
THE BEST FRENCH TOAST ON THE PLANET! (and if youre feeling super froggy, get the coconut version of this crowd favorite).
Expect to go into insulin shock afterwards, so drink lots of water and delicious coffee. Pancakes infused with fruit didnt hurt anyone, either.
The Mission Potatoes are legendary.
Tamales with green sauce are ridiculous.

One of my favorite spots in the world.
Cant go wrong with anything on the menu. No BS.
Full coffee bar there, too.
Its popular, though ... so prepare for a wait.

This is NOT the first place youd think of for breakfast, becuase its a bar at night. But its 2 stories, and the bottom story is more like a chill bar/restaurant deal during the day. They have delicious breakfast options. The AWESOME BREAKFAST comes with hot cakes, eggs, potatoes, bacon ... its one of our fav's

Let's Eat Out Tonight
The beach is so spoiled with tons of amazing options within a mile or two of your home, where someone else can do the cleanup:
Cant. Go. Wrong. If you are uninitiated into Vietnamese phood (see what i did there ;) then start with:
Fresh Rolls (ask to hold the pork so its just shrimp)
Chicken Pho (its a soup, with delicious broth, noodles and yummy other fixings). I say chicken, because thats easy to start with. But i love the rare steak (it cooks in the broth so its not rare once you eat it) and even tofu.
YouTube how to personalize the broth to make it spicier, etc .. its FUN!

Best Burger You Will Ever Have, Period.
Sorry In-And-Out .. i love you. And I go to In and Out way more than I do Rocky's ... but Rockys is the best. Get the 1/2 or 1/3 size with cheese and grilled onions and a basket of fries = lights out.
NOTE: this is a bar. Not good for kids.
