Bread et Cie Cafe
350 University Ave., San Diego, CA 92103

This is probably the best bakery in San Diego. Hanie and I have eaten here many times and it never fails to disappoint. I highly recommend their brie & honey panini and their chocolate croissant. The service is top notch, the food is top shelf. They also make a killer mocha. Located on 4th and University in the heart of the bustling and urban-chic community of Hillcrest, it’s a perfect place to catch up with friends or people/dog watch over a slow paced, quality meal.

Punjabi Tandoor
9235 Activity Road, Suite 111, San Diego, CA 92126

If you love Indian food, then this hidden hole in the wall should be in your rotation. In the middle of a seemingly deserted industrial park, this gem serves up quality Indian food at an affordable price. Their chicken palak is outstanding and their naan is fresh and perfectly chewy, yet slightly crispy. The service is friendly and the initial smell upon entering is overwhelmingly fantastic. I haven’t tried all their items yet, but I definitely plan to.
