메모리얼 주말에 샌디에고에서 관광할 만한것들에 대해서 신문에 나온것을 옮겼습니다.

 

DAY ONE // FRIDAY
8:30 p.m. Arrive at San Diego International Airport, which is about as conveniently located as an urban airport can be—less than 3 miles from downtown. Pick up your rental car and either drive 15 minutes to the Pearl Hotel in Point Loma, a refurbished 1960’s-vintage motor lodge a block from America’s Cup Harbor (thepearlsd.com, from $100 a night) or, about 30 minutes north of downtown to Fairmont Grand Del Mar for a more classically luxurious resort experience, including an 18-hole golf course and spa (from $495 a night, fairmont.com).

10:00 p.m. Choose your own adventure for dinner. Old-school San Diego or new? For the old, there’s the unreconstructed 1950s charm of the horse racing-themed Turf Supper Club in the neighborhood of Golden Hill. Settle into one of the banquettes ringing the dim red-lit dining room. Order a gimlet while you scan the menu, where (raw) steaks and kebabs dominate. Diners cook their own dinners on the large copper-hooded gas grill at the center of the restaurant, often chatting amiably with each other—like a DIY dinner party (1116 25th St., turfsupperclub.com). More newfangled: Just five minutes further away, in South Park, is Kindred, a cocktail bar and vegan restaurant with a death-metal-meets-Victorian-parlor aesthetic. Don’t be intimidated—the crowd is eclectic, the staff welcoming. Try the “charcuterie” plate with slices of spiced seitan and the anything but “Boring English Trifle” that shows just how unnecessary dairy can be (1503 30th St., barkindred.com).

DAY TWO // SATURDAY
8:15 a.m. Wake with the fishes at the Tuna Harbor Dockside Market and watch boats pull up to the dock with that day’s catch. Families come here early to buy sea urchin, giant crabs, live octopus and whole tuna, which amazingly sells for less than $4 a pound (879 West Harbor Dr., thdocksidemarket.com).
9 a.m. Drive about 20 minutes to Madison in University Heights. Yes, the beet waffles are a sight to behold, but it’s the back patio that’s the true stunner (4622 Park Blvd., madisononpark.com).
10:30 a.m. Ten minutes’ drive down Park Blvd, is Balboa Park, the 1,200-acre museum- and garden-packed centerpiece of the city. The San Diego Museum of Man makes anthropology exciting, with a fascinating, and yes, fun exhibition on cannibalism (1350 El Prado, museumofman.org). Sign on for a climb of the museum’s California Tower, during which you’ll get an overview of the history of the park and views all the way to Tijuana. Back on the ground, take a trip back in time aboard an Electriquette—a battery-powered wicker cart that toddles along at 3 mph. These were a sensation during the park’s earlier incarnation as the home of the 1915-16 Panama-California Exposition (wickercarts.com).
12:30 p.m. Ten minutes’ drive further south puts you in Barrio Logan, the heart of Chicano San Diego. Join the line for tacos and nachos at ¡Salud! which is decorated with posters and car parts from a 1962 Chevy Impala, celebrating SoCal lowrider culture. The Barrio taco comes on a thick, hand-pressed flour tortilla and a ladleful of carne guisado—stewed beef topped with beans and slivers of nopal-cactus (2196 Logan Ave., saludsd.com).
1:15 p.m. Explore Barrio Logan’s galleries and shops. Start at Vecindad del Barrio, a small complex of shops and art spaces including Por Vida coffee shop, where you can browse a small, well-curated collection of art and T-shirts, including work from Tijuana street artist known as Panca. If you need a pick-me-up, try the cold-brew coffee sweetened with horchata (2146 Logan Ave., vecindaddelbarrio.com).

3:30 p.m. Walk five minutes up Logan Avenue to one of the city’s great public art spaces, Chicano Park. Since the early 1970s, the massive roadway-support pillars connecting the Coronado Bridge with I-5 have sported epically scaled murals depicting Latino life and legend. The park is also home to a skate park, playground and pavilion called the Kiosko, modeled after Aztec and Mayan designs (chicano-park.com).
4:30 p.m. Sunsets are treated with the seriousness of a secular sacrament around these parts. Take it in at Luscomb Point in Sunset Cliffs (Hill St. and Sunset Cliffs Blvd).

7:30 p.m. For dinner, go to Juniper & Ivy in Little Italy. The ecumenical menu might include a raw seafood medley with sea urchin, a Moroccan-tinged lamb and the Yodel dessert, a supersize rolled devil’s food cake. Waitstaff have to speak loudly to be heard over the booming ’80s-heavy soundtrack (2228 Kettner Blvd., juniperandivy.com).
9:30 p.m. It’s a five-minute walk up Kettner Blvd. to the Casbah, a landmark of the San Diego music scene. It’s loud, dark and a bit grungy, but a smart booking record and low ticket prices (usually less than $20) compensate. You may be able to brag in a few years that you saw some superstar band in a tiny club way back when (2501 Kettner Blvd., casbahmusic.com).
11:30 p.m. About a mile away, in the restaurant Craft & Commerce, look for the walk-in cooler door. Behind it is the False Idol tiki bar serving exotic cocktails like the “Alkala the Fierce,” made with chai-infused-bourbon and pimento dram, among other oddities, and presented with theme-park-grade theatrical flair. Reservations recommended (675 W. Beech St., falseidoltiki.com).

DAY THREE // SUNDAY
8:30 a.m. Head to the locally famous World Famous, in Pacific Beach, for breakfast with a view. Take a boardwalk-side table, and watch the surfers while you eat eggs Benedict or an off-menu bowl of pozole (711 Pacific Beach Dr., worldfamouspb.com).
9:45 a.m. Continue driving 30 minutes north to the 1,500-acre Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve home of one of the rarest species of tree in the world. Walk off breakfast on the trails to Razor Point and Yucca Point for incredible views of the striated sandstone cliffs dropping down to the ocean (torreypine.org).
11:45 a.m. Appetite restored, it’s just a 15-minute drive back down the coast to Galaxy Taco in La Jolla for lunch. The octopus tostada—with a lashing of charred orange and habanero salsa—is electrifying (2259 Avenida De La Playa, galaxytaco.com).
