This won’t make me popular with a couple of local restaurateurs, but I have had two very disappointing meals in the village recently.
Until they mend their ways (hire a new chef?), I suggest you avoid Bistro 101 and Alfonso’s – both restaurants are on Prospect Street.
I don’t like reporting negative experiences, but the whole point of this blog is to help you get the most out of your time in La Jolla — and that includes leading you away from cold soup and cardboard burritos.

I live in La Jolla and I'm a travel writer, so in addition to enjoying my home town's great weather, beautiful surroundings, and range of cultural and recreational options, I also see La Jolla - and the rest of San Diego - as a travel destination.
And what I see sometimes drives me batty. People vacation in La Jolla, but don't take advantage of everything our community offers, so I decided to start this blog and provide insider advice for out-of-towners.
Hey. I figure if I can write insider tips about exotic destinations on
Authentic Luxury Travel, I ought to be able to lead readers off the beaten path that starts just outside my front door.
In the process, I'm having fun revisiting my favorite places and discovering some new ones. Travel writers are naturally snoopy, and this blog is my excuse to have a good ol' sticky beak around my home town. I hope you find it helpful.
If you are coming to La Jolla or another area of San Diego and would like my help in planning your trip, please read
"Need Help Planning Your Trip" and then email me at ehansen298@aol.com.
