On the Menu: In the mood for seafood? Head over to The Fish Market where fresh is the word of the day

Patrons of The Fish Market restaurant in Solana Beach seem to be hooked on the fresh catch offered daily. Whether it’s in the retail market or in the dining area, there’s something for everyone — from species in season to locally caught varieties like swordfish.

On the Menu: San Diego cuisine with views of the sea? Now that’s George’s at the Cove!

“There are three elements to any restaurant: The people, the food and the environment,” said George Hauer, owner of George’s at the Cove. But what he and his staff have done is take those elements and elevate them to an unique dining experience by building three different places in one, on three separate floors — California Modern, George’s Bar, and Ocean Terrace — all of which are highlighted by panoramic ocean views.

The Carmel Valley Dons Tackle Football 5th grade team has started its season with an impressive four-game winning streak. In a recent game against the Chula Vista Aztecs, the Dons players demonstrated a strong offensive show by putting up 40 points against the Aztecs. Outstanding line play by Grant Anderson (5), Justin Vilchis (34), Logan Berzins (11), Cole Shearson (22), Leo Silverman (55) and Raymond Sanchez (9) proved too powerful. Crew Fritsch (56) added, “these guys are beasts with an average weight of 110 lbs. per player, anyone can run behind our Offensive Line.”
