I visit San Diego every couple months and love staying at La Pensione hotel. It's always so fun, and you don't need a car.

We used to rent an apartment on Union Street for the month of July to get away from the Phoenix heat. It was the closest to being back in Brooklyn. It was my happy place 😊

Again, huge Mediterranean influence and climate in San Diego 🌞 Would love to see more Italians and Italian style neighborhoods in SD. Should do a video of East/inland San Diego. Lots of houses on hills and breathtaking hikes!

I’m amazed at how much it’s grown since I first visited in 1998. Even Pappalecco’s has changed. I’m just glad Filippi’s is still there. I have fond memories of dinners with family, friends, professors, and colleagues there.

I stayed in Little Italy in May. It was my first time in San Diego, and I absolutely loved it! I can't wait to go back. I'm hungry, just thinking about all that great food.

I gotta give you the props for making this video! I would have just filmed then done a voice over after, a few good times as it got crowded in your video and onlookers glanced over my anxiety peaked a bit haha

Thanks Mike! I always like to talk on location as I find I'm a bit more excited about what I'm talking about than if I'm doing it later at home

I never had a chance to check out Little Italy during my visit to San Diego last year. I'll need to check it out on my next trip there though as everything looks really nice especially around dinner time!

Piazza Basilone (at India & Fir) features a bust of Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone who earned the Congressional Medal of Honor for extraordinary heroism at Guadalcanal and who lost his life at Iwo Jima.

I think India St was to honor the STAR OF INDIA sailing ship (which, for non-natives, is a classic 19th Century sailing ship that is docked permanently in SD Harbor and is now a fascinating museum)

Was quite put off by California after feeling very unsafe in San Francisco and also Los Angeles. What you show in this video is pleasant and proves that I shouldn't have painted the entire state with the same brush!

@pdxaviation 11 ай бұрын

Yeah San Francisco and LA are absolute dumps now, but San Diego and Orange County especially are nicer. Same with Portland where I live. Just go a little further out of the metro area and it’s night and day how much better the areas are outside of the city

@YellowProductions 11 ай бұрын

Yeah. SF and LA are rough. But Cali does have some quite nice spots!

I wish the City would close India Street to automobile traffic (Like New York did with its Wall Street neighborhood ). BTW, the streets are named after trees; Ash, Beech, Cedar, Date, Elm, Fir, Grape, Hawthorne, India, Ivy, Juniper. (Yes, there's a tree called India).

Hi can I Please ask you a question? Was this filmed now? On july 23? If so, why are everyone wearing long cloths? Isnt it hot? I am comming in 2 weeks and I thought it is summer.. 😢😮Thank you

@mitchbart4225 11 ай бұрын

He said it was the 4th of July. Costal SoCal had unusually heavy marine layer (fog) this year. As it usually does in July, it's starting to dissipate now but it can often be chilly at the water through August esp. in the early morning and evening. Pack layers/hoodies

Hi Hila. Yes I filmed this in July. But it was sunset time.. in San Diego it also often gets chilly at night time even in the summer

The only place I ever go to eat in little Italy is Felippi’s. That being said, it has been forever since ai have been there. The main reason I never even consider it is that traffic is horrendous down there. Also, if you have to valet, it’s a fortune! A friend of mine went there last year, snd she said it was gonna be $80.00 to valet! Insane!
