Back to Rincon Puerto Rico
I really have enjoyed our short, cold, high traffic expensive visit to San Diego.
- I caught some really good waves in La Jolla the first few days and one short lived great beach break session in Oceanside (Water Temp=52 degrees).
- Bristol Farms Grocery Store – I spent $60 getting Summer and I sushi, ahi poke, oranges and some pre-made mashed potatoes!
- Whole Foods – Delicious salad bar with everything you could imagine
- Delicious Sushi
- Enjoyed drinking red wine that was not refrigerated
- Summer got PRK LASIK Surgery (more on that later)
- We hung out with some friends and had sushi
- I watched Cable Television! (even with 600 channels there is nothing on)
- Hung out in Little Italy with Josh for a Hoegaarden beer (or two)
- Saw Shawns house (that is under construction…he’s not building his himself)
- Hung out with Robin and Gary for Gary’s Birthday (Summer mom and mom’s husband)
- Hung out with Shawn at his place in UTC
- Wend to In and Out Burger!
More on this In and Out place for those of you who don’t know how special it really is. In and Out burger is a family owned fast food restaurant with no plans of franchising or going public. Their food is simple as is their business philosophy; “Give customers the freshest, highest quality foods you can buy and provide them with friendly service in a sparkling clean environment.” They only have four things on their menu: Hamburger, French Fries, Soda, Milkshakes. But, if you know the inside dilly, you may order a double double, animal style like I did last night (Two patties with fried onions). You can also order anything protein style and they will give you the burger wrapped in lettuce with no bun.
I stay away from fast food (minus SubWay) but I always hit up In and Out Burger when I am in San Diego.
I like In and Out Burger

I miss In n Out.
Not a little… A LOT! The first thing I’ll do when I got off the plane in California is eat a 4X4, fries, and a neapolitan shake with a soda chaser. I don’t care how much of a pig that makes me… I have needs
I also miss Hoegaarden… I would settle for a Blue Moon at this point.
Oh, and Stefan… in SJ, we have 600+ channels

I only went to In and Out once and it made me double-double over. I have an iron gut but something went wrong with that burger. Tasted ok but in about about an hour I wanted to die. Now if they would just offer whole grain buns I would have been happier prior to the double-double over.

Robert – Ha…”I have needs”…That is hilarious. Where are you from exactly?
Karen – Yep, Stefan hit up the In and Out Burger in San Diego…They don’t have those in Puerto Rico
!
Dianne – I’m bummed I didn’t get to see you, Conner and the Godfather’s son, Van. I heard I was close though…sleeping in the car in your parking lot. Blah. PRK/Lasik kinda sucks royally. I’ll be back in SD in two weeks though, so I’ll be coming by

Summer,
originally east coast (Boston), grew up all over the place (including part of my teens with relatives here in PR), and lived in Burbank from May 2001 – Jan 2004/Costa Mesa from Jan 2004 – July 2007. In July I got laid off, did the “Half Baked” fuck you speech in my office, got on a flight to San Juan and haven’t looked back
That’s the super mega condensed readers digest edition.
btw…. not In n Out, but in Ocean Park (SJ) there’s a damn good burger joint called Top Burger, and in Old San Juan there’s El Hambuergito which has what I consider to be the best burger on the island.

Hello Stefan:
I’m happy to find a blog from a local!
I’m from Puerto Rico, but live in DC and am coming back for a family reunion in Aug. We’re looking for someone to help roast a pig for our party. Do you know of anyone that doesn’t charge an outrageous fee?
