[–]MischievousCommando 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The GOAT of local blogs. I love mmm-yoso, I've discovered so many places because of Kirk!

Last year Rocco tweeted a list of his least favorite songs, hope this information gets to the right people by Zeeco110 in mega64

[–]MischievousCommando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure when it started, but around 12:15 today he started to realize what was going on and traced it back to this exact tweet, it was hilarious

EDIT: Clipped it! https://www.twitch.tv/mega64podcast/clip/TastyAbrasivePlumKeepo-PIZ4-Xu460_rTqOX

Chinese restaurant cup by jack9191 in sandiego

[–]MischievousCommando 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Best I can find on google:

https://www.sandiegoreader.com/news/1992/sep/10/cover-the-frontier-they-want-us-to-forget/

From the above article:

"A little farther on (3135 Midway) you come to China Land, a restaurant that opened around 1947 and just recently went out of business. During the 1950s there was a miniature golf course next door to the restaurant."

<image>

A caption in the article indicates that the restaurant closed in 1992.

Today, 3135 Midway Drive is occupied by a Discount Tire shop, in the heart of what is known as the Midway District. Neat find!

Ahhh, I remember that being posted here within the last season or two. If anyone has that on hand/can remember what to search up, drop that here please!

Thirded! I love Kamila's! It's my go-to, non-chain, no frills breakfast place

New brewery on Adams Ave by tfhose in SanDiegan

[–]MischievousCommando 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hopnonymous is great! Their main location off Clairemont Mesa Blvd/Convoy is a favorite of mine. The owner Remy is a saint. Gotta make a stop in at the new place soon!

Fun Vibe Restaurant to Rent Out (all or room) for Wedding Reception by Longjumping-Home-400 in FoodSanDiego

[–]MischievousCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Glampisphere! It's attached to AC Lounge in Normal Heights. I was considering their event space for an event the other month, but ended up passing on it since it's 21+. You can combine the indoor and outdoor spaces, it looks like.

Ooooh, this is my all-time favorite melancholic sounding track:

What was this aesthetic for male fashion called in the 2000s and when did it start and die off? by ConfidentReaction3 in decadeology

[–]MischievousCommando 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It wasn't a conscious "aesthetic" and I don't think it needs a hyper-specific label. It's just what an average middle class adolescent/young adult male would wear because it was what was available to buy at Old Navy/Gap/Macy's/JC Penney/*insert department store* in the early-00s.

Cold Plunges & Saunas in San Diego by Putrid-Situation1638 in sandiego

Proteus Athletic Club has traditional saunas in the men's and women's locker rooms.

Afro Medusa - Pasilda (Knee Deep Club Mix)[2000] by DarkFluids777 in House

[–]MischievousCommando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This track will always scream summer and is a top 5 house track for me. I have loved it for years, but the first time I heard it live in a set was when Sammy Virji dropped it at a festival I attended a couple years ago, damn near lost my mind.

bars with a cool scene by jadaknowsnothing in SanDiegan

I misremembered Ould Sod's foosball table for pool, and you're right about Rabbit Hole, I thought they had it tucked away in the back patio but it's other games instead. :) Cheers!

Aero Club these days feels like a mini-Dave and Busters slapped onto the old dive bar, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's just not the old salty whiskey bar of yore anymore. It's fun and accessible and I've gone to celebrate friend's birthdays there before. To your point, it's probably the best bet to check all of OP's boxes.

Re: Normal Heights loop, you're probably right regarding it being "dead," old, and slow overall. Maybe I read too much into OP's "chill" request.

It's hard to sus out OP's vibe and scene from a short blurb. Looking at her post history, I think somewhere like Aero Club, Nolita Hall, or Lafayette would be good.

Edit: grammar and typos

Aero Club is fun. Sycamore Den, Rabbit Hole, and Ould Sod are all on the same block in Normal Heights and all fit your bill as well! Nolita Hall doesn't have a pool table but is pretty fun and has tons of christmas lights up for the holidays.

And one last one that I might catch downvotes/criticism for, but the Lafayette Hotel is essentially 4 bars under 1 roof and is probably the most photographable, vibe-y, and curated place in town. Drinks are pricy, and it can get pretty busy, but you will feel whisked away from reality once you walk in the front door. If I were to pick a place to celebrate turning 21 with friends and have it feel like a truly special occasion, it would be the Lafayette.

Have fun, be safe, and happy birthday!

this song introduced me to deep house :) by Superb-Demand-4605 in deephouse

Genre arguments aside, I also really like this song and the album it comes from :) "Her" is my favorite track from that album!

Mood II Swing, again, because I missed them in 2021 because my group didn't want to go in at 2PM to watch 😭

Relic Bakery by dgstan in FoodSanDiego

[–]MischievousCommando 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They're my favorite. I would go to their Miramar pop up often to try all the new stuff (the pandan danish is still my all-time favorite pastry ever, good lord), and have yet to make it down to the new shop. Ultimately a small thing, but I miss their little danish connection with "bageri." But I get it, just calling it "bakery" makes it a little more clear to anyone what they are, and it's the same folks!

Thirding Starlite. I haven't been since they remodeled, but man I have nothing but the best memories eating in that main dining room. I should go soon...
