    Spicy chicken  Curry chicken

    Delicous African food with tasty chicken and veggies. Fun stand at the Hollywood farmers market on sundays

    Curry chicken with coconut rice. Yum!

    Tried the food at the Santee Farmer's Market. The lady was very kind, let us sample some chicken flavors. We tried the sweet chicken, curry chicken and spicy chicken. I LOVED the curry chicken and my daughter really liked the spicy chicken. The sweet chicken had a good flavor, but the curry beat it for me. The coconut quinoa bean rice was bomb! It was a filling portion of meat and rice. I had to take it home to finish it. I loved that it tasted homemade with Will definitely be back again!

    This plate of food stopped me in my tracks at La Mesa Farmers Market. Delicious chicken options & savory sides for non meat eaters. I will be back.

    Yellow rice, collards and spicy chicken, delicious!

    Just tried samples at a farmers market in Point Loma San Diego and loved the spicy chicken and curry chicken!

    I freaking love this market, Sat & Sun only, 10-4…read more What did I want to do for Mother's Day? Lane Field market! Walk along the Embarcadero & get a freeze on a hot day, stop by Chilanga's (the best booth there) & get my huitlacoche on. Live music, shade, delicious vendors, right across from the water. I did have a little detour from Chilanga's - while I was waiting for my spouse to park, I sat at a shady table with a woman who was telling me about the poke truck (Island Mike's) & explaining that her coworker ran it as a side hustle, and that the poke was delicious because he had lived in Hawaii. I agonized a bit - get my Chilanga's huitlacoche huarache - or try the poke? I eventually decided: it's Mother's Day, you can have ALL the things, just like at a buffet! So I went to Island Mike's first. They advertised Broke Da Mouth poke - and I was a little suspicious at first - cuz Island Mike's didn't look like a Hawaii native but a mainlander who spent some time there. BUT... I got my poke "island style" (furikake, sushi rice, and the poke - not lots of distractions like seaweed salad or ginger like in the "mainland style") - and it really was off the hook. Really fresh & delicious and perfectly made. YUM & YUM. $12 for one scoop (the smaller size) & very worth it. Of course I still needed my Chilanga's so then I got the huitlacoche huarache (a vegetarian taste of heaven - shredded lettuce, huitlacoche, Mexican cheese on a huarache (masa dough) & tried the mango passion fruit agua fresca. The huarache is huge and I'd already had the little poke, so I took most of it home to eat later. But it was just as yummy as I remembered. And the agua fresca is amazing. I'll still crave Chilanga's but now I'll crave Island Mike's too. I need to get down here more often because it is a super fun outing that is too good to waste on tourists!

    This was walking distance from Hotel Republic just past the Santa Fe Depot so before we started our…read moretrek back to OC 2 weekends ago, we decided to check out some of the vendors at Lane Field Park Market. There was live music and aa few food stalls. Good Eatz (filipino/hawaiian fusion) caught my eye mainly because they have a few Ube pastries (mochi, ube bar, etc). I first ordered the ube bar which passed the test so I went back to order the mochi. They also offer lumpia, spam musubi and chicken wing combo plates and pork dumplings.

    I remember trying Sonoran-style hot dogs while visiting a friend in Tucson, AZ several years ago…read more After seeing Ochidoggy show up on the activity feed for my connections, I decided to visit this pop-up vendor in the southern part of the Normal Heights neighborhood. The setup was a simple cart under a canopy in a random parking lot on El Cajon Blvd. A few picnic tables with overhead cover were available if you wanted to eat your food on-site. Five different hot dogs along with french fries and a stuffed jalapeno pepper were offered on the menu. A typical Sonoran hot dog has a bacon-wrapped frank topped with pinto beans, onions, tomatoes, and other condiments. It's served on a bolillo bun. The Hot Dog Regular here contained bacon, grilled onion, red onion, tomato, and mayonnaise on a football-shaped bun which made it the closest resemblance to an original Sonoran. I chose two other varieties for my to-go order, a Hot Dog Jumbo and a Hot Dog Chilidogo. The first one had the same ingredients as the Regular with ham and American cheese added. The second one also had the same ingredients as the Regular, however the bacon-wrapped frank was stuffed inside a California pepper with grilled mozzarella cheese on top. Trays of condiments were arranged in front of the cart so you could select additional toppings. Four different sauce bottles were also available for more flavor. As you can see from my photo, both hot dogs were buried under the other components. The right type of bun was used which was very soft. I did feel that a gratuitous amount of mayonnaise was drizzled on top. I didn't add more toppings or sauces because there was already a sufficient spread. I am unsure if there are other businesses in the SD area that serve Sonoran-style hot dogs as I have not actively searched for them. I can say that the products I tasted from Ochidoggy were good enough for a four star rating.

    Great food and lovely service. I love Sonoran hotdogs ever since trying them in Arizona so I was…read moreexcited to try this place. The set up is nice with a few parking spots in the lot and 3 picnic benches, bright lights, and even a heater. Prices were very reasonable ($9 for regular Sonoran dog with fries, $2.50 for canned soda or bottled ice tea). The owner was extremely nice and friendly - explained all the options and toppings to us, and even came over to turn on the heater so it will be less cold while we eat. The food came out quickly and everything was super efficient. Hot dog was great - tasty soft bun, bacon wrapped hot dog really tasty, and enjoyed all the toppings. The fries were decent but in my opinion slightly over fried and would be even better if a tiny bit more seasoned as well. Great portions though. Overall the experience was fantastic and we will be back!
