Anything that required chasing down the ice cream truck. Our ears were finely tuned to hear the music from anywhere inside or outside. My favorite treat was what we called "missile pops". Now that I know about artificial flavors and colors, I don't indulge in missile pops. I do still enjoy frozen treats, just those made with natural flavors and colors.

I'm curious to try the quinoa burger.

There should be a new location opening on India St. in the Little Italy area of San Diego soon. I saw their hiring ad in Craigslist a week or so ago. Saw their new store a coupel weeks ago and it looks almost finished. Can't wait.

Burger Lounge has the best burger in San Diego, hands down! From their delicious and organic grass fed beef burger to the fantastic quinoa veggie burger, you certainly get what you pay for! In addition, Burger Lounge has excellent customer service, a fun atmosphere and an affordable price! Try any of their four San Diego locations today!

Burger Lounge is definitely one of those restaurants to visit when you're in San Diego. The burgers are VERY, very juicy--you'll have its juices running down your fingers! (in a good way...). Personally, I prefer the Grilled Lounge Burger over any other--I mean, that's what you're coming to Burger Lounge for: grass-fed meat! Fries and onion rings are to die for--garlic-seasoned and definitely fresh-cut. I have to disagree with the many people who aren't fond of Burger Lounge; why else would it be a part of San Diego Magazine's top restaurants? It's even becoming increasingly popular among San Diegans...and a new location is opening in downtown Little Italy. Burger Lounge is definitely a must-go!!!

Burger Lounge is without a doubt the best burger in San Diego! With fresh, healthy, grass fed beef, superb quality customer service, and reasonable prices, I'll never go anywhere else!

Have tried Burger Lounge and it may be politically correct because it is grass fed beef but doesn't live up to it hype for deliciousness. The patty is slim and not juicy. My taste for burgers is similar to Frank Bruni's and he did on burgers that was great.

Oh man this is stoking my hamburger craving fires, and if luck didn't have it it's a Friday in Lent!

Colin I live in Encinitas and I have really enjoyed your postings. I would like to suggest the Big John burger at Tip Top Meats in Carlsbad. It is an old school butcher shop/grocery. The burger is nothing fancy but they use really good meat.

@pinkstripes: I've been to the Coronado spot several times when visiting my wife's family, and have to say that Burger Lounge makes simply the best Veggie Burger I've ever had. Quinoa? Yes, quinoa. For real. And I would also holler for the Onion Rings as well. It's a class place, and knocks NYCs veggie burgers fully out of the water. If that's your thing.

@ratbuddy: It seems to be a Cali thing; since I moved here a year ago, every burger I've ordered has more veggie than meat.

What's with these places putting a salad under the burger patty? You'd have to hold the burger upside down for it to taste right..

I loved the taste of these burgers, the patty tasted like real food not some soggy manufactured meat product. Ditto on the buns, so great. Definitely a classic SD eatery, delicious, local and small. LA can kiss our sunny ass....

Grandma Crocetti's Italian fried dough cookies., cenci. So good. And the best part was the powdered sugar you got all over yourself when you ate the cookies.

It is a tie between my mother's cinnamon rolls -- made with raisins and just the right amount of vanilla glaze -- and her recipe for blonde brownies with chopped walnuts and chocolate chips. I just made my mother's blonde brownie recipe for my three year old daughter and she can't get enough of them. Eating them reminds me of my childhood.

I was always most excited when my mother made her chocolate chip mondel bread / mondel brot. I certainly have not outgrown it - now, I make it myself (not too often!).

I loved the peanut butter cup sundae from Friendly's ice cream. two scoops of vanilla with chocolate fudge and peanut butter sauce, with whipped cream and a reese's peanut butter cup on top!
