Dining in Laguna Beach


Recommended Posts

Today they are knocking down Rick's Drive-in in Pasadena. Rick's was the originator of the spuderito, which I suppose you would describe as a french fry burrito , which as a description is sort of like saying a diamond is a compressed piece of black coal. that is, it's a really amazing food item far greater and more  wonderful than the sum of its ingredients.

The food (including Spuderito) lives on Bobby's Place (opened by a former employee) but I will really miss Rick's the original.... It  was a wonderful and humble and enjoyably distinctly southern california experience. Very sad to see such a fine shack get the business end of the wrecking ball...

Oh, is THAT what that was?

At 12:48 PM, I felt an earthquake in Laguna Beach - the epicenter was between Buena Park and La Mirada, 21 miles from me. It was only 2.1 on the Richter scale, so it was just a half-second rattle despite its relatively close proximity.
