Southern California in Food Photos

This is the 3rd part of the Food Photos series, covering my June trip to the United States. After covering San Francisco Food Photos, New York Food Photos, we're now onto Southern California.

I lived in Southern California for a good chunk of my life. But the photos shared only cover the items I enjoyed upon my June visit. The cities include Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Orange County and San Diego.

So without further ado...

Santa Barbara FisHouse

Here's a quick reco for those traveling to Santa Barbara:

Every Tuesday and Wednesday at the Santa Barbara FisHouse, they offer a special: a 1.5 lb Maine lobster for $19.99. I've been to the FisHouse before and they have a number of good things on their menu. But a $20 Maine lobster deal for a California restaurant is something one has to consider.

$19.99 Lobster special


In addition to the lobster, Santa Barbara FisHouse offers a tasty bacon wrapped scallop appetizer with a small stack of onion rings and BBQ sauce.

The chowder is solid, not great, but tasty.

My recommendation would be to start at Enterprise Fish Co., just down the street and get a bowl of the famous lobster bisque covered in puff pastry. They also have a tasty seared ahi appetizer (half price happy hours) with caramelized onions, eggplant and red peppers.  Enterprise Fish Co. has locations in Santa Barbara and Santa Monica.
