EATER SAN DIEGO YEAR END WRAP-UP, Part 2: Dining Pros Name Top Restaurant Standbys of 2016

December 28, 2016 mgardiner

Part 2 of Eater San Diego’s year end restaurant wrap-up asks  local food writers to name their top restaurant standbys of the year:  http://sandiego.eater.com/2016/12/27/14094658/san-diego-top-restaurant-standbys-of-2016

My answer:  “For the second time in a row I have to name a place serving Shaanxi cuisine. Last year it was Xian Kitchen and their superlative biang biang noodles. This year it is Shan Xi Magic Kitchen with biang biangs that are even better. After being more than ready to write my review of the place after two trips I went there three more times ‘just to be sure.’”
