Xooro

Xooro...  premium Spanish fritters?  Sorry, but I disagree.  This little shop recently opened at the Westfield Shopping Center in Mission Valley.  While I was looking at their "products" on their website, I wanted to try one of their treats.  Each looked delicious.  When we got to their store, we discovered that some of the treats were already made.  I was expecting them to make it when I placed my order.  To me, it should have been warm, but instead, I got a cold Xooro.  The Triple Chocolate ($4.40) consisted of a chocolate filled regular

Viva Pops

While standing in line for Lestat's last month, I noticed Viva Pops across the street and wondered if they were any good.  So I was quite excited to find out that they were part of Taste of Adams Avenue.  Lavender Lemonade sounded different and it certainly was...  a little funky.  Strawberry Basil was absolutely delicious!  Even though I didn't really notice the basil, this treat was full of strawberries and is a must try!  Their pops are $2.50 each (I think we received smaller sized pops to try), are organic, and come in a variety of unique flav

Cool Cravings

Submitted by cathytran on Sun, 05/16/2010 - 6:52pm

Found another self-serve frozen yogurt shop in PQ!  Cool Cravings charges 39 cents per ounce (just like L'Amour De Yogurt), but you can find coupons for buy one get one free in the local savings magazines that you get in the mail.  The two flavors that I like best are Pineapple and Red Velvet.

But, what's great about this place is they also have ice cream and smoothies!  I noticed they have a pink "mint chip" and asked about it.  Apparently, it's a peppermint chip ice cream.  Something I'll have to try next time.

Haute Pink Cakes

Submitted by cathytran on Tue, 02/16/2010 - 7:56pm

Looking for cute cakes or cupcakes?  Try the local family-owned Haute Pink Cakes in Rancho Penasquitos.  They have lots of flavors, including their signature PINK velvet, in three sizes: mini ($1.50), regular ($3), and jumbo ($4.50).  If these prices seem a little steep, keep a look out for coupons in local publications.  Also, if you become a fan on Facebook, you'll get updates about daily specials.
