Dissapointment: No Denny’s and the Death of a Legend
Despite all the Denny’s hoopla, I didn’t get a free Grand Slam today. No sir, not me. No freebee for the master freeloader himself. It’s my own damn fault really. We got out of the house way too late. Luckily, when my girlfriend and I were heading down

Free Grand Slam Breakfasts at Denny’s tomorrow!!!
Roughly 90% of my Denny’s experiences have taken place at the Pacific Beach location in San Diego. If you’ve spent any significant time in “America’s Finest City” you know exactly which place I’m talking about (the corner of Garnet and Mission). When I was growing up, PB was pretty cool. It

San Diego Fish Tacos with the Intern
So I’m down in San Diego again, for a birthday and a bit of a holiday season spell. It’s the first time in awhile that I have been able to go home longer than a second, so I’ve had the chance to settle down and relax over the last

Feeling souper with Monica the Intern
Often times when I’m at school, people are complaining about the food on campus. Its not that it isn’t cheap or decent, or quick [well, sometimes anyway]. But when you’re eating it constantly, the lack of flavor tends to become apparent. There is one place in
