I visit Mark’s Bark in the off season. During football season I stay home and pray to the football gods. Wish Mark was open days other than Sunday. If not for the bbq signs it’s hard to tell what is inside. The building is nondescript. Inside you can tell it use to be a bar.
Breakfast
The South Park Abbey

Darshan Bakery & Cafe
The recipe is elementary. Add sun, clouds, sky, and you have a lovely sunset. Colors blend into one another. Clouds diffuse light from the sun. No sunset is ever the same. I never tire of these wonderful moments as the sun disappears from the sky.

Streetcar Merchants of Fried Chicken, Doughnuts & Coffee – La Jolla
