Found such a cozy Middle Eastern coffee spot in San Diego ☕️

What I loved most about .sandiego was how calm and relaxing it felt. It’s the kind of place where you can bring your laptop, get some work done, and actually stay for a while.

We tried the Ube Matcha Latte and Biscoff Latte, plus a few desserts. The Peach Mousse was my favorite — light, creamy, and not too sweet. They also have some really interesting drinks like Cardamom Latte and Pistachio Latte that I definitely want to try next time.

Such a nice spot for a slow coffee afternoon or a work session. 🤎

I tried their 2-hour Full Body Reset, and I really liked how the whole treatment flowed from a full body massage to scalp care and then a customized facial.

My favorite part was definitely the head and scalp treatment. It was so relaxing, especially after the massage, and I loved that the facial at the end was customized based on what my skin needed that day.

If you’ve been wanting a longer spa treatment where everything is done in one session, this is such a nice option.

Found this little sushi spot inside Zion Market 🍣

has a huge selection, and we ended up grabbing way more than we planned 😂 We tried the salmon and eel sushi, Spam musubi, and a few different onigiri.

The eel sushi was really good, and I loved having so many different options to mix and match. Everything is already packed and ready to grab, so it’s super easy when you want a quick meal without settling for something boring.

Definitely one of those spots I’ll be coming back to try more!

I think I just found one of the most impressive bowls of pho in San Diego. 🤤🍜

I finally checked out , and the first thing you have to order is their Beef Back Rib Pho. The beef rib is absolutely massive, slow-cooked until it's fall-off-the-bone tender, and packed with so much flavor. As it melts into the broth, every spoonful gets richer and more delicious. It was easily the highlight of the meal.

We also tried their wings, spring rolls, and a few other dishes, and honestly, everything was delicious. From the crispy wings to the flavorful appetizers, nothing disappointed. If it's your first time here, start with the Beef Back Rib Pho and thank me later.

Got a little preview of .usa before they officially open in San Diego!

The Stir-Fried Pork with Peppers was definitely my favorite. They offer both beef and pork versions — the beef is made with American Wagyu, while the pork is made with black pork. I went with the pork, and it was super tender and SO good with rice. I also loved the open kitchen where you can actually watch the chefs prep and stir-fry everything right in front of you.

Food we ordered:
Stir-Fried Pork with Peppers
Golden Pan-Fried Eggs
Sauerkraut Fillet
Smashed Chili Eggplant with Century Egg
Hunan Spicy Braised Assortment
Cabbage Dry Pot
Iced Lemon Tea

They have a good mix of spicy and non-spicy dishes, so even if not everyone in your group can handle the heat, there are still plenty of options to share.
usa officially opens September 5 at Westfield UTC!

A matcha date is always a good idea. 🍵💚

I finally checked out .sandiego , and I can see why everyone has been talking about it. Everything tasted rich, smooth, and full of real matcha flavor without being overly sweet. We tried the Banana Pudding Matcha, Double Matcha Sea Salt Latte, Matcha Soft Serve, a Hojicha drink, plus the Ube Cream Puff and Matcha Parfait. Honestly, every single item was so good that it's hard to pick a favorite.

If you're around Convoy and love matcha as much as I do, definitely give this spot a try!

Mornings just hit different with a fresh bagel sandwich and a good cup of coffee. ☕🥯

Fresh bagels, great coffee, and the kind of breakfast that makes you want to slow down and enjoy the morning.

Nothing hits better than shaved ice on a warm day 🍧

just opened in Convoy, bringing authentic Japanese kakigori to San Diego. The ice is shaved so fine that it practically melts the moment it hits your mouth, making every bite light, fluffy, and incredibly refreshing.

They also offer handcrafted drinks, so it's an easy stop for dessert after dinner or a little afternoon treat with friends. Definitely a fun new addition to the Convoy food scene.
