Best Friend's Happy Hour Adventure at Unos

Joel and I went to happy hour this week at Uno's but I think their happy hour only had Coors for half off at the bar so we just decided to get some beers, pizza, and dessert! =)

Getting started... on Twitpic

We wanted to try their deep dish cookie sundae....which was pretty much the same thing as the Pizookie at Bj's. I think I prefer the one at Bj's more.

New Zealand Burgers

UPDATE: I spelled New Zealand wrong!! I spelled it New Zeland and had to change it because Joel corrected me. Thank you friend.

Went to Bare Back Grill earlier this week with Joel and Bowie.

We ordered a pitcher of Bare Back Amber Ale and the Kiwi's 3'some to start....

Joel and I ended up trying Sheila's Cracked. I got everything on my burger while Joel spent 20 minutes talking to the waitress telling her what he didn't want on the burger and what he wanted on the side....making things so complicated she forgot Bo's order and had to come back to ask him what he wanted...
Bowie ordered Don' Mince Dis...it was good. Don't get me wrong....but it was really small!!!

After dinner we walked around downtown for a bit and even went shopping at Urban Outfitters and ended up getting free chocolate at Ghiradelli's and a sundae!! WE ARE BARBARIANS!!!

Look how happy Joel is!! LMAO.

BARBARIANS!!!

Best Friend's Dinner + 1

Bo, Joel, and I had dinner on Wednesday at Boomerang's Burger Joint in Clairemont. Joel kept on calling me on the phone on his way there because he was nervous that he was in a "shady" part of San Diego. When he parked he ended up clubbing his car and was a little paranoid. Don't get us started though because we've had experience with our things getting stolen.

We were a bit overwhelmed with the menu because you can create your own burger! Add all the fixins you want!!

Joel's burger....I haven't had the chance to upload pictures from Bo's camera yet. Bo was daring and didn't get a burger!

I enjoyed watching Joel wipe off all the ranch residue off of his burger and plate while trying to hand me all the veggies from the burger he didn't want to eat. How SHADY!!!

After dinner we had our photo shoot. LMAO!!

The stud posing!!

"Hurry up and take the picture! There's people coming!!"

Best Friend's Dinner IX

Is that right? I don't remember how to write Roman Numerals!! HAHA. It was either that or VIIII.

Honestly I don't know if its our 9th dinner? LOL. Joel says it is. So I believe him. Cause what ever happened to our dinners 7 and 8? OMG. HAHA. I never posted about it.

I've actually been wanting to find a good Tapas place in San Diego but for some reason we ended up wanting to try this British Pub in Little Italy called the Princess Pub and Grille and when we Yelped the place and saw bad reviews Joel found another pub off of India Street called the Shakespeare Pub and Grille that was worth trying!!!

Although we were the darkest people at the place and probably looked like touristas with our picture taking craziness I had a fabulous time!!

Can you see the red telephone booth off to the left side? We spent a great deal of our night there taking photos. LOL!!!

Joel has most of the pictures on his camera since I was showing him how to use the different modes. HAHA. Don't even get me started on that. I'm so nice! LOL. =)

Our Magner's Irish Cider! Yummy!! =) For dinner I decided to get the Shepherd's Pie and Joel got the Fish and Chips. I'll post more pictures as soon as I get them from him.

After dinner Joel and I decided to go to Gelato Vero. I know we eat so much!!!

Surprisingly I didn't get Pistache! Instead I opted for the Spumoni!!! A great ending to a scrumptious dinner! I loved it! =)

Catching Up

Tuesday night Joel and I had our Best Friend's Dinner at Uno Chicago Grill in Fashion Valley. We were both craving some deep dish pizza with some buttery crust.

It was funny because when we met up with each other we were kind of dressed in the same colors! It was grey, black and white themed. HAHA.

Lots of catching up on each others lives and of course eating. Unfortunately, I was too full to eat dessert which I guess was also a good thing.

After dinner, Joel and I decided to do a little shopping. I was proud of myself for not buying anything but Joel on the other hand went a little crazy. HAHA. I was there to support him in all of his spending glory.

Best Friends Dinner V

Joel has been wanting to try out this Argentinian place in Little Italy for the longest time so on Thursday we FINALLY went to Puerto La Boca! I guess their main website has been down for awhile so all the info I could find on this restaurant was through Yelp. The last time Joel and I went to Little Italy was to eat at Trattoria Fantastica / Cafe Zuccheros and that time it seriously took us FOREVER to get parking but luckily this time we were able to find parking easily. Also, the restaurant was at the far end of Little Italy so there was plenty of parking spaces available.


We started our meal off with tons of bread and olives, garlic butter, and this really delicious parsley, garlic & olive oil mix. Andrew told me what it was called but all I remember was it sounded like "chimichanga."


Joel took this picture after we already tore it up and devoured so much bread. We also ordered 1 ham and cheese empenada as an appetizer but we were eating like barbarians and didn't have time to take a picture of it but that too was tasty. It took us forever to decide what we want because it was like this for 10 min while the server was patiently standing at our table taking our order.

Joel: We would like the empenadas.
Server: You have a choice of beef, spinach, ham, cheese & chicken.
Me: Oh we can get cheese and chicken.
Server: Oh it is actually ham and cheese.
Me: Oh ok!
Joel: Beef.....(silence)
Me: Spinach.......(silence)
Me: Oh wait you don't like vegetables (looking at Joel)
Joel: No that's fine.
Me: Beef......(silence)
Joel: Um...
Me: Ok ham and cheese.
Joel: Ham and cheese.
Me + Joel: Ham and cheese!!
Server: So ham and cheese?
Joel: Yes.
Me: Sorry Thank you!!

We ordered Entraña for two with mashed potatoes.

Overall it was a nice place and I would definitely go again. =)

After dinner Joel and I decided to walk around Little Italy on a quest to find a place for Best Friends Dinner VI / photo shoot. HAHA.



There is ALWAYS this long line at Filippis!! I mean its OK there?

After walking around for a bit we decided to get Gelato!!


We couldn't decide between Nocciola, Pistacio, or Vagina Gelato Flavors. HAHA!!

Cafe Zucchero seriously gives SOOOOOO MUCH Gelato!! So good!!! Alas, our night came to an end so until the next dinner..... Toodles!!

Elbow Guns. The End!!

Best Friends Dinner IV

Joel and I don't do dinner that often but when we do we try to go all out and try different restaurants or if not a new restaurant then just a different dish on the menu!! Well I guess you can say that's more of Joel's goal than mine because I am the type of person that will just get the same thing all the time but then Bo has kind of helped me to venture out and try new things. Anyway, we went to Studio Diner! Its amazing to me how many times they show Studio Diner on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

Sorry I didn't get the "elbow guns" in this picture. I kind of wanted to sit outside with the giant godzilla monster so maybe next time.

Loving my Roy Rogers!! =)

Onto the artery clogging portion...

I guess after weeks of eating salad and exercising hard core Joel decided that he would let himself go and get a Monte Cristo.

I got a San Diegan. I don't understand this San Diegan deal the only difference is that they add avocados and bacon. At California Pizza Caca they have a San Diegan pizza and that comes with avocados and red onions? I don't know???

We ended dinner with a peach cobbler that we didn't even finish. It was yummy though!

Where will Best Friend's Dinner V be next? That is the question!
