Review of New to Me Restaurant, Carlsbad Beach Grill

Because I purchased a certificate from one of the daily deal sites recently, I tried a new to me restaurant called Carlsbad Beach Cafe, located conveniently on the 101 last week. I have also noticed that this restaurant is one of the choices on restaurant.com, so you can purchase certificates at a drastic discount at any time (please use Around The Town's link located on our blog or web page www.barbaroundthetown.com. Carlsbad Beach Cafe has friendly owners and workers (shout out to Monica), a cheery sun-filled interior, and fantastic food. They offer tasty appetizers including calamari, fried zucchini and shrimp cocktail. Entrees include salads, soups, sandwiches and burgers (I had a super tasty burger with jack, avocado and bacon), fish tacos and more. Breakfast items are also available. They make a different soup every day. My husband tried the clam chowder with a onion and bacon base (he added a dash of Tabasco) and it was one of the best he has tried. Oh, and the 80's rocking tunes in the background did not hurt either! Try it out, I know we look forward to going back! www.carlsbadbeachgrill.com.

Check Around The Town Blog Page Daily

I hope you enjoy getting your daily email updates from Around The Town. Did you realize there is a link at the bottom of these emails to click into the blog, rather than just read from the email update page? I suggest you do this for a couple of reasons. For some reason, updates intended for publishing do not always publish on the email update, but they will appear on the blog page. Also, when you go to the blog page, you will see the current specials with my advertisers. For example, right now restaurant.com is featuring 70% off, coupons.com has fresh grocery coupons available, and snapfish has a special for you- 100 free prints with purchase. Just check the banner ads to find the latest as these deals change from day to day.
