Cultural Center in Del Mar

"Located in Balboa Park, the Japanese Friendship Garden is a relaxing spot to spend an afternoon in San Diego. The garden was built to represent the friendship between San Diego and its sister city in Japan, Yokohama, and provides a unique and chilled out experience for visitors. Besides its zen atmosphere and impressive garden and architecture designs, the Japanese Friendship Garden hosts regular events throughout the year, such as yoga classes, meditation sessions, and the San Diego Sake Day."

"There is an extra fee to enter the Japanese Friendship Garden, which is an expression of friendship between San Diego and its sister city, Yokohama. There’s an upper and lower strolling path where you can see koi pond, landscaped gardens and a Zen garden viewing deck. It’s a very tranquil space."

"The Garden originated as a teahouse during the 1915–16 Panama-California Exposition and now lies on two acres near the Spreckels Organ Pavilion."

"The House of Pacific Relations International Cottages showcases the traditions of 34 national groups, some of which have their own cottages (build originally for the 1935 Exposition). The goal is to promote multicultural understanding through exhibits and programming. (Location: Balboa Park)"

"We had an absolutely amazing experience celebrating our 25th anniversary @ Eddie V’s. The service was excellent!. Rose petals on our table, complimentary..."

"This Cohn Family restaurant specializing seafood and Mexican cuisine is a restaurant, lounge and floating event center combined into one impressive harborside location. The outside eating areas showcase panoramic views of the harbor, Coronado and beyond in one sweeping glance."

"Dry-aged steaks and hearty meat entrees are a big draw at this steakhouse but the restaurant’s detail to service will make your meal one to remember. The restaurant’s commitment to farm-to-table shines in the veggie side dishes (seasonal ingredients are harvested from its private farm nearby), and seafood dishes like the Chilean sea bass are just as delicious as the meats. Insider tip: Daily happy hour 4:30-6:30 PM"

"Located across the street, The West Steak and Seafood provides intimate fine dining with quality steaks and seafood, along with daily hand-picked vegetables from the West Farm."

"One of the larger farmers markets in San Diego, the Little Italy Mercato has 200 vendors to peruse on a sunny (or rainy) Saturday morning. Come here for fresh fruits and veggies, meat, fish, eggs, olive oil, artisan goods, and flowers, among other products. It’s also famous for its freshly-caught sea urchin if you want to add some extra excitement to your morning."

"There are a lot of farmers’ markets to take advantage of in San Diego and the Saturday ‘Mercato’ Street Market in Little Italy is one of the best. It’s one of the largest markets in the city and happens from 8 am to 2 pm every Saturday, rain or shine. It’s also one of the best things to do in Little Italy to get a feel for the communal nature of this neighborhood."

"Eat, shop and enjoy at Little Italy Mercato every Saturday, year round, 9 am to 1:30 pm. The Little Italy Mercato is the city market for downtown San Diego residents and visitors with more than 70 booths lining Date Street from Kettner to Union offering farm fresh produce, artisan foods and specialty items."

"Walk back to Girard Avenue and continue south to Ark Antiques, founded in the 1970s as the dream of two women decided to start a business based on their two passions, antiques, and animals. Today, it’s one of the most lucrative non-profits in La Jolla. This specialty shop sells every kind of consigned item you could want including antique jewelry, silver, china, paintings, lighting, furniture, and more."

"Horton Plaza Shopping Center, a multi-story, open-air mall, is known for its eclectic architecture, people-watching opportunities and more than 100 stores and shops. Make a purchase here and you'll get three free hours of parking—ample time for shopping and exploring the surrounding Gaslamp Quarter."

"Hillcrest Brewing is more than just a great place to sample a wide variety of specialty beers, some far-above-average tavern food specialties, and a convivial atmosphere. Hillcrest can also lay claim to being the world’s first LGBTQ-owned-and-operated brewery in the world. So be sure to stop in to try a pint from among their deep range of tasty tappers and say hello to their “hunky brewsters."
