Mar 18, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico If you're a food lover in San Diego, you may have seen the name Kitchen 4140 gracing the pages of local food blogs and online magazines. But you most likely have no idea where it is located. That’s because the farm-to-table restaurant is situated off-the-beaten bath in a neighborhood called Bay Ho, where Clairemont, Pacific Beach and La Jolla meet. ... Read More |
Mar 5, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico In December 2013, Kona Kai Resort & Marina completed the first phase of its $22 million makeover. While the first cycle of improvements definitely enhanced the over 60-year-old property, it still had a ways to go before regaining its former elite status. With the help of Noble House Hotels & Resorts (who bought the property back in 2013), the second round of renovations have now been completed. ... Read More |
Mar 3, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico San Diego is known for its beaches, craft breweries and fresh, farm-to-table restaurants sprinkled around town. But it isn’t as celebrated for its booming nightlife, especially when compared to places like New York City, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. However, seven of its local watering holes made Nightclub & Bar’s Top 100 list for highest revenue-generating properties in the US. Look who's playing in the big leagues now! ... Read More |
Feb 13, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico Not to brag, but California’s list of Forbes Five-Star rated hotels, restaurants and spas greatly outweighs New York’s (west coast, best coast!). Also, this year, the Golden state’s hotel selection grew by two with the addition of The Park Hyatt Aviara Resort in our own backyard and Rosewood Sand Hill in the Silicon Valley. ... Read More |

Feb 6, 2015 | Contributor: Marissa Stempien While big names take the stage during Fashion Week in New York, London, Milan and Paris, there are smaller, more intimate runway events happening all over the world. Fashion Week San Diego, a biannual presentation, is a local “launching pad” for emerging designers that draws in crowds from all over the Southern California area. ... Read More |
Jan 27, 2015 | Contributor: Courtney Driver As the most south-westerly city in the United States, Imperial Beach is the one of the last stops in San Diego before hitting the San Ysidro Border going into Mexico. Not well known as a tourist spot, the area is mostly residential and fairly sleepy; a typical California beach town. And while the oceanfront does have a bit of a main “drag,” with beach bars and the new Pier South Resort, IB is really about the more natural elements: the quiet, sand, waves and nearby nature reserves. ...

Jan 26, 2015 | Contributor: Marissa Stempien After the California ban on foie gras was lifted earlier this month, many restaurants have been wasting no time getting the delicacy back to their tables. Farm-to-table restaurant Kitchen 4140 will be hosting a special event to celebrate the reinstatement of the French dish called the Welcome Back Foie Gras Dinner. The evening will showcase the culinary talent of eleven local chefs during a six-course meal on February 2. ... Read More |
Jan 20, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico Upon entering the East Village's Double Standard Kitchenetta & Craft Bar, you may notice that nothing seems to necessarily match, yet at the same time it all perfectly syncs together. To the left, floor-to-ceiling windows take up two walls and a vintage-industrial style decorates the space with exposed beams and bricks (a décor that many eateries are using these days). ...

Jan 8, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico Sports fans may already know NFL player Jacob Bell who played for the Tennessee Titans and St. Louis Rams over eight seasons in the league, but San Diegans will soon know his name for reason: his juice bar. Sol Cal Café, the city’s first vegan market café and juicery with a built-in naturopathic doctor’s office, was opened in October by the former player and Food Network’s celebrity chef Anne Thornton. ...
