Pret-a-Porte is refreshingly talented for hair and skin services. Hard to find in San Diego county. Zip code or not, this gem should be sought out by all in La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe and Fairbanks, there is no better. As a Los Angeles native, where the stars are....it is great to have Pret-A Porte- Dan and Roz Oserin.The newest Green Science facials and plant peels are splendid and Theresa a jewel, try it.
Pros: Roz and Theresa for me, the products also.
Cons: Parking slots, a challenge , but worth it

Wow, what a great find! At 7pm on New Years Eve we had no plans (We're getting old!) and we decided to at least try something new. I had watched the old Jamar steak house get it's make-over into something called Habana and had been meaning to try it. What could be a more perfect opportunity?
We had the Sampler plate for 2 (and there were 3 of us) and the Tropical salad, which we split. The plates are big! Unless you absolutely starving go small and add on if you need to (you wont!). I had never had Cuban food and I was suprised by how "light" it was, not greasy at all. The salad had yummy grilled chicken on top and came with all of the dressings they offered. Every one of them delicious. We each had a Mojito, which were very good. The bill total was about $60 which I think was very reasonable for the amount of food and 3 drinks.
The service was great, staff is young and very friendly, food came quick and our server took a lit of time explaining what each dish was. The decor is simple, but much brighter than the old Jamar velvet, dark dining room.
Definately a must when your in the mood for light latin cuisine!
Pros: food quality Service

I've experienced a lot of different Mexican Restaurants in my life, even in Mexico. Authentically, Casa De Pico has to be one of my best experiences with customer service and great food. The mood is set for a wonderful date or dinner with a group of friends. The food is amazing!! Nothing else to say about that. I will continue my adventure in finding great mexican food, however, if I were to stop with Casa De Pico, I'd be satisfied.

'That yogurt place' is our family name for Yogurt Express. We go pretty often and I recommend you give it a try. The parking lot has only about 10 spaces with each about 12 inches too narrow. Two excellent parking spots are behind near the dumpster.
The self serve yogurt machines are on the back wall with three sizes of styrofoam cups on the wall to the right. Price at checkout is determined by the weight of your cup. You don't need permission to get started. Walk right on back to the cup dispenser, pull one out and start making your own yogurt.
The machines dispense about eight flavors, some fat free, with labels showing flavors. You are free to fill the cup with any or all flavors, mix & blend to your hearts content. Fill it about half full then pack the yogurt by holding it about two inches above the counter and dropping the cup on it's bottom. Repeat a couple of times. This technique allows the yogurt to settle into the cup.
About 20 toppings are available for self serve on the right of the store. Pick one or more to sprinkle or go back and forth between the yogurt and toppings during the fill process to get a fully mixed blend.
Now go to the register and put a clear plastic dome top onto the cup. Place the cup on the scale. If you are a repeat customer show the man behind the counter your Yogurt Express 20% off card and give him your "buy 10, get one free" to mark. If you don't have these cards and they don't offer them you should ask. Pay the man.
There are a couple of tables and chairs both inside and out front. Enjoy.
Pros: Local favorite with families and San Diego State University students.
Cons: None

I have only eaten at Tiramisu a handful of times thus far. But every time was magnificent. The food is amazing, it makes my taste buds deliriously happy! The service is great; very attentive and personal. And something about he ambiance makes me think of old films shot in Venice like 3 Coins in the Fountain and Roman Holiday, etc. It definitely makes your night out special.
