or... Just go to Ortegas in San Diego. Same Lobster, 2 hours, half the price.

Good call Woooosh.. .. and the same wonderful tortilla soup too. This

here... .. Try it you'll like it..

... and no parking meters. I'll bet Mexico would like them to close the one in San Diego- kinda sets a bad example for tourism attraction, doesn't
it?

Wilderone,
Any idea if any locals are promoting the tour? Website looks like it's a back-office tour consolidator. Also will be curious if it succeeds or no.
Woooosh and KasheyDog,
Thanks for the Ortega's idea. Will head there on my next trip north. Lots for me to learn about San Diego.

The info was a banner on the Signonsandiego.com site. I opened it and read the info and passed it along. I don't know who they are. Sounds like an
all-day thing - might be fun.
Yeah - Ortega's San Diego looks good, kind of expensive though.
Here's a cat-out-of-the-bag: the fish tacos at Cotija taco shop on Voltaire in the little mall with the Stumps market. $1.29, fresh, awesome.

I live in San Diego, eat in Hillcrest regularly and did not know that there was an Ortega's. How embarrassing.
I think I will have to get over there right away and check it out.
Thanks for sharing !

Thank's for the link, Wooosh. Those pomagrenite (sp) margaritas sure are enticing.
