They were for sure the best hot dogs I'd ever bought at a store (Trader Joe's of course). I'll definitely need to do a cured vs. uncured (shouldn't they actually call them "celery-juice cured"?) taste test in the future. Just had the Niman Ranch nitrate-cured hot dogs this weekend.

Went there the other day, and they were gone. Just totally gone - don't know why. I bet that old Pho Haunt was Pho Tau Bay???

I was in your home town last month and sad to say I was too engaged with wedding and friends-from-out-of-town activities that I had no chance to partake in any of the great suggestions you have on your website. For instance, the day after the wedding, my local homey demanded I steer our out-of-friends to the perfunctory tourist trap known as The Fish Market (downtown on the bay). Dissapointing. The oysters were ok, the chowder less so, and the entrees boring. Meh. And really nothing by the beach was anything at all to write home about. I did drop off my mom at my cousin's in Linda Vista, and stopped by K Sandwiches (I think that's the name). I was actually looking for my old Pho haunt when I lived there 9 years ago, but it was no longer. I did have a decent bbq pork banh mi and some curried chicken and a couple crusty french rolls to go. That — and the steak dinner I had at the wedding, the chasyu ramen I had at Takara at Mitsuye(sic?) supermarket @805/163/Convoy, and In-N-Out Burger — were the highlight of the trip. Come to think of it, it was a pretty good trip for only 4 days consumed by a wedding in which I was a groomsman. Next time I need to really explore my former stomping grounds. Thx Kirk.
