There's a Ralph's in walking distance of the con center. Go get sandwiches.

The guy in this show is hot.

In & Out Burger. I don't think there's one by the convention center ComicCon is being held at, but it's worth the trip nonetheless.

That would defeat the purpose of a restaurants. I'm not talking something you can just go pick up at a grocery store like a cold sandwich. Sometimes you want a nice hot meal at a restaurant. Or go to a place with really good food. Like a place that sells good Mexican or Indian food.

>>1929196
There are tables, and they have a lot of hot options. But I did not address your question, my apologies.

I just read OP's post entirely in Alton Brown's voice. Then I lol'd.

Sage for irrelevance.

>>1929365
I am at this moment watching Alton Brown make doughnuts, and had a real soundtrack. . .trippy.

When I go on a trip, I like to treat myself to something kinda nice at least once or twice

When I go to cons, I learn to love pizza.

I don't know about SDCC but for those going to Otakon, trust the street vendors. Harborplace is going to packed and all of those restaurants are expensive as hell anyway. Street vendors will sell you a hot dog, chips and water for $5. Also: there will be ice cream trucks that go on for miles.


Can we make this a general "good eats @ ____con" thread?

No one's going to tell you the decently priced, not crowded, good food restaurants because then they lose quality number 2.

I've always felt sorry for that Subway on the corner. It's about an hour and a half line late into about 9pm. The Dennys isn't bad for the night owls though, I recommend it.

First post here so I hope this works. Gaslamp Pizza (if it still there) is cheap and tasty. Unfortunatly Comic Con is right in the heart of downtown SD and therefore nothing is cheap.

It's always a good con if I can go to I-hop

I love I-Hop!

Like all problems, this is solved with google.

All the non-labeled dots are food. Click to see what they are.

Last year, there was a street fair a couple blocks away so we had crepes from a booth. As for eating there, your best bet would be to bring your own food. It's a thing my mom makes us do. Or hell, just wander around the Gaslamp for a bit until you find something you like.

>>1929431
There aren't any street vendors in the Downtown/Gaslamp area (there's some like in Chula Vista and what have you, but that's too far for these purposes). If anything there's plenty of hole in the wall places. I typically go to Ciro's Pizzaria for a quick and cheap eat at $2.50 a slice. It's not the OMGWTFBESTPIZZAEVAR, but it's certainly the best choice when it comes to how late they stay open, how cheap it is, how fast and nice the service is.

Or just go on Yelp and check that.

>>1929157
There is a ton of resturants in Gaslamp Quarter.

Cool story bro.

I have no idea about your particular con, but what I did was bought a nice cooler and I pack stuff in ice, and use the ice machines at the hotel. WARNING WARNING WARNING - Put EVERYTHING in tupperware containers that goes into the cooler! Otherwise they will get destroyed. I buy bread, lunch meats, mayo, etc.. so everyone can make sandwiches.

>>1930174
>$2. 50 a slice
That pizza better walk over to me and have gold napkins for that much.

My mom makes me sandwiches most of the time. ;_;
When I went to Anime North, I remember a Denny's, slightly expensive to the average con-goer but I love the pancakes there.

I'd imagine Subway would be a good cheap solution to some food problems. $5 for a footlong submarine sandwich. Want to splurge? spend another $1 on a bag of Doritos.

Near SDCC, this place serves the godliest pizza with the freshest ingredients. It is I think on 5th or 6th and Market. Enjoy, and I'll see you there.

>>1930900

Wrong city and wrong coast, bro. (But I will check it out anyways)

Bump for tasty food options.

What

>>1930836
>>1930842
For Gaslamp/Downtown it's cheap.

>>1930900
Glad I'm not the only one that likes Ciro's.

>>1930949
learn2geography and get your head out of your ass

>>1931706
Right, way to let that go WAY over your head.

LA - West Coast
NYC, home of the real "godliest pizza", is in the east coast. (Though often debated with Chicago for pizza)

Hence wrong city and wrong coast. DURHUR, I can't believe I had to explain that one.

>>1932004
San Diego Comic-Con isn't in LA, and neither is Ciro's.

>>1932271
Oh, I forgot my pretentious "DURHUR".

>>1932004
Nah, New Jersey > New York.

I just saw the word "rape" and then the picture of Alton...my mind just went to a very happy sexy place now.

>>1932271
Okay, replace San Diego with Los Angeles and my statement still stands.

>>1932456
The point was you can't geography correctly, I'm surprised you can manage to get to Jersey or Boston let alone HAHAMEXICO.

>>1930949
>>1932456
Really I meant the best pizza in San Diego.
Also, Chicago style pizza >> NY style pizza.

Thats right.
I went there.

>>1932495
OH JEEZ I JUST SAW! He never mentioned LA. I thought he did. Whoops, my bad!

I'll be taking my A in geography and burning it now.

As an apology, have this gif. I feel like Julia here.

I'm a little surprised Soni didn't pick up on it immediately.
Maybe she thought Chicago was in NY.

I tease of course, Soni.
