January 30, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
A casual place that serves good food and drinks at reasonable prices is not easy to find these days. What is even more frustrating is trying a new place that does not meet your expectations and ending up quite disappointed at the fact that you did not get your money’s worth. So it was to my great delight when I bumped into a friend of mine from college who was gracious enough to invite me to this place to eat in Carlsbad where I always pass by but have never actually tried. She and her whole family dropped by to this place one time and had a wonderful time there.
American pizza and beer lovers would surely find Pizza Port a perfect place to dine with its child-friendly and local atmosphere and very laid back setting. Basically, they serve local cuisine at prices ranging from $5-10. Aside from pizzas and in-house brewed beers, their specialties also include salads, hot chicken wings, ice cream and the best pizza sauce in town. Eating there is never a bore because it is often packed with people who are eager and willing to wait in line. This informal hangout is almost always full all week long. Sitting on those picnic benches most often leads to new acquaintances and people who happen to enjoy a different beer than the one you’re having.
Students from nearby colleges and families visit this place not only to eat and drink but also to chill and tinker with video games and indulge in surf videos. On top of that, you can also view and play your favorite sports and electronic games in their big TV screens! It occasionally hosts a couple of crazy festivals like the international beer tasting competition. And the best part about all this? It offers great prices to match their excellent food and beer. You could actually choose from half a dozen beers that are part of a single combo price. Plus, trying samples of a handful of house beers for free before making your choice isn’t that bad at all.
And for those who are in it for a little adventure, you can stop by the next door store where you can find a wide selection of carefully brewed beers from different countries around the world. Who knows? You just might find there your favorite beer. They have about 40 great beers on tap, including a many award-winning ones. You can even try every single one until you find the right fit for your taste buds and might just have a little chitchat with the master brewer on the beers that are served. You can also find another Pizza Port somewhere in Solana Beach, though this one at Carlsbad is a much bigger place for a bigger and louder crowd. I liked it my first time there when I went looking for a place to eat in Carlsbad and so did a lot of people who have since kept coming back for another pizza experience.

Carlsbad Homes for Sale – Enjoying the Things to Taste in Carlsbad
January 23, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Few of the things to taste in Carlsbad that I have found really sinfully good and tasteful are pizzas, pastas, wine, and everything Italian. My mom is a big aficionado of Italian cooking and is, in fact quite good at it. She took some lessons on the cuisine back in New York just to impress us all. So unabashedly I could say I have very critical say when it comes to those pizzas and pastas.
Since I moved to Carlsbad last month I could not believe how I would miss my mom so bad just by dropping by quite frequently this Italian restaurant that just makes me feel like home every time. That loud warning in your head that sirens when you are tempted to have something loaded with calories will be inaudible when you get the experience of trying real good Italian cuisine in Carlsbad, trust me. After all, you just cannot help it. Things forbidden do have a secret charm. We usually desire even more the things denied to us. They are very much inviting when you least want them. I kind of stopped bothering to resist those forebodings a long time ago. It just is futile to keep looking away but your mind is at it still. What a torture that is!
To start with, my favorites in this little haven include among others, Pizza Carlsbad which goes with great cheese, a lot of pepperoni, and a very spicy sauce. It is best when matched with a freshly brewed homemade beer on the side. If that pizza alone is not enough to fill you, then you can also order hot wings and some fresh lettuce and tomatoes on the side? Aside from great pizzas, I also worship pastas and fine dining thus if you might happen to be around Carlsbad, Vivace’s black spaghetti is something you should not miss to try which is made even more unique a dish by the addition of some calabrese sausages.
And for those who just simply love a creamy and buttery sauce, the Risotto ala Astice is a must-have! For starters though, a roasted tomato soup is just perfect to begin a spectacular meal with plus burrata side dishes to tame a bit the craving within. A good way to wrap up this good meal would be to enjoy a grapefruit honey dessert and a glass of Italian wine. Among the many things to taste in Carlsbad, a few of them I certainly find quite sinful but heartwarming at the same time. I might just get used to this place since it reminds me a lot of home and my family which I do not really get to see much often. Perhaps, I should start loving the gym, too!
For those of you who have the opportunity to explore Carlsbad, do not leave the city unless you have tried the best it has to offer. For sure, your taste buds will have a feast on these various sumptuous local delights.
