I now have two restaurants to which I can ride my bike or walk! Zia Pizzeria is a new fave with delish pizza by the slice or on the whole with toppings ranging from yogurt sauce to eggplant to potato. I fall instantly in love with a place where the service is excellent... even more so when the food is equally excellent and Zia is both!

Tonight Nilo and I checked out Tao on Adam's Avenue, the newest offering from the folks at Dao Son (Hot Chef) on El Cajon. I literally can NOT breathe right now I'm so full. We split an order of Spring Rolls, which came with 5 rolls (2 for Dusty!) They brought us a complimentary salad, topped with walnuts and a side of Sriacha and homemade tofu. Nilo had Garlic "Chicken" and I had Tofu with Black Bean Sauce. They were both excellent! For dessert they brought us sliced fruit with a mini scoop of ice cream. Like I said... I literally can't breathe!

After the letdowns named Blind Lady and El Zarape, I'm breathing a serious sigh of relief with Tao and Zia!
