			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is Oceanside and North County&#8217;s most spectacular new restaurant. It overlooks the Oceanside Pier and it&#8217;s breathtaking sunset view is unsurpassed! They serve fresh seafood and steaks nightly with an emphasis on presentation and innovation. For example, a sensational appetizer is their crab, shrimp and lobster cake ancho aioli with a mango salsa. It&#8217;s a winner!</p>
<p>Another delicacy is the spicy tuna eggplant tempura. And their main course selections are equally spectacular! You can&#8217;t go wrong with their grilled king salmon with a mushroom-spinach risotto or their sizzling 16-oz certified angus New York steak with mashed potatoes. Equally delicious is the tapenade roasted organic half chicken with broccolini, polenta cake and a tarragon.</p>
<p><img src=http://www.sandiegan.com/images/Restaurants/333pacific2.jpg width=145 height=89 class=alignright>Then there is steamed Alaskan king crab legs. You will love this place. They also have two private dining rooms and a spacious patio to host your next big event.</p>
<p>Lunch is served Tues.-Sun. Dinner is served beginning at 5 p.m. nightly ($18.95-$42.95) with a happy hour from 3 p.m.-7 p.m. daily in their Vodka Lounge featuring more than 100 vodkas. Their cocktail lounge specials are attractions in themselves. For example Wine Wednesdays offer 50 percent off selected bottles of wine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Casino Pauma has most of the bells and whistle that the gigantic San Diego casinos have except one. It’s smaller, which is an asset if you like the feeling of being a big fish in a small pond. Instead of there being a maze of rooms filled with slot machines, you’ll find plenty to choose in one large ballroom.</p>
<p>Card players won’t get lost in the shuffle either. Casino Pauma offers two dozen tables in a room away from the slot machines. This 42,000 sq. ft. casino is all under one huge roof, yet it isn’t big enough to get lost, as some casinos are. And if you are a smoker, you’ll enjoy the fact that smoking is allowed throughout the casino. So you won’t have to go outside to have a smoke and then come back and resume your gambling.</p>
<p>And you won’t have to search around for their cocktail lounge either. It’s the first thing you see when you step inside the casino. It’s thatched roofed architectural rendering is the theme portrayed throughout the casino. It begins and ends with the beautiful, block long palm tree lined entrance to the casino itself. While there are lots of parking spaces the casino isn’t so large that you have to flag down a tram just to get to the entrance. Yet, there are handsome doormen on hand to greet you and open the doors to one of the friendliest casinos in San Diego.</p>

<p>For Andre&#8217;s customers that love to cook at home, they are also happy share some of their our own recipes and will even offer some “motherly” advice to help them through the process of cooking!</p>

<p>Blending beautifully with the natural landscape of San Diego&#8217;s rolling foothills, Barona Creek Golf Club is one of California’s most inviting golf course. They offer a championship layout from the Black Tees which boasts a course rating of 74.5 and 139 slope and it is ranked as one of California&#8217;s top courses, in company with Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Their popular full bar cocktail lounge offers a fine list of wines and domestic and imported microbrews. Yachtsmen and local residents have been dining at this nautical bayfront restaurant for more than 50 years. Come for fresh seafood, purchased directly from local fishermen, and sizzling steaks. Equal to the food is their million-dollar view of America’s Cup Harbor. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.sandiegan.com/images/Restaurants/redsails2.jpg" width="145" height="89" class="alignright"/>Come early and enjoy the sunset on the patio overlooking the sparkling yacht marina. For the best seating indoors, ask for table 5. The fresh charbroiled fish selections are a house specialty, but don’t overlook the thick, juicy filet mignon or the top sirloin pepper steak. Seafood lovers will undoubtedly rave about the delicious macadamia nut halibut. A superb appetizer not to miss is crab-stuffed mushroom caps smothered in a savory Newburg sauce. Also enjoyable is the Caesar salad topped with shrimp. Ask about the daily specials, which may be deep-fried coconut shrimp or Maryland crabcakes. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.sandiegan.com/images/Restaurants/redsailsinn3.jpg" class="alignright" width="145" height="89" />Early dinner specials are served Sun. – Thurs., 4 p.m. – 7 p.m. ($10.95). Dine at Red Sails Inn and become part of a more than 50-year tradition. Open daily by popular demand for breakfast, 7 a.m.–2 p.m. ($5.95–$10.95); lunch, 11 a.m.–4 p.m. ($7.95–$15.95); weekday lunch specials ($8.50–$9.50); dinner, 4 p.m.–11 p.m. ($11.95–$26.95). </p>
