Jun 26, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle MonicoIf there’s one thing that San Diegans absolutely love, it’s al fresco dining. And, if our outdoor table includes ocean views, then forget it, we’ll be there for hours. Which is exactly what happened to me when I visited JRDN at Tower23 one evening for dinner. Three hours later, and we were still sitting there, people-watching and sipping on French press coffee. ... Read More | 
Jun 26, 2015 | Contributor: Victor and Mary If you reside in or visit Los Angeles often, you’ve likely enjoyed Chaya Restaurants.
