I just had to add my $.02 to the recommended Spicy restaurants in San
Diego. Chuy's (Mexican) Restaurant - unfortunately I don't know the
address, nor can I give very good directions, but it's almost right
under the Coronado Bridge, on the San Diego side, get off the 5 at
28th St. and ask.
Also, a great Vietnamese restaurant on El Cajon Blvd, about 4 blocks
west of 40th St.
