From Ghetto to Gourmet, from Pabst to Perignon, EatFiend is where you will find pictures of food, skateboarding, the ways of the Almighty Larb and drunken ramblings about pictures of food.
Went here with Capt.Rue, he'd been raving to me about explaining that is't basically homestyle breakfast for real cheap. That sounds good to me given I'm a baller on a budget.
The sign looks pretty old yer given the impression that it's a shut down business.
But if you take a closer look they are open! Located on 3804 Grim avenue, San Diego CA. right on the corner. Keep in mind the front door is rarely open, you gotta look for the sign. The hours are from 7a.m.-12p.m.
Upon walking into the place it has a real hospitable vibe. Outdated counters and decor that look like they are straight from a truck stop in the midwest from the 70's.
You might sit at yer seat for a few minutes with no service but don't fret, take a gander at the menu and you'll notice everything is under $5. You'll then realize that there are no waitress', just this old guy that I assume is Lucky the owner. He'll first ask if you want coffee (your first refill is free, 55 cents there after) then he'll take your order by memory then walk behind into a tiny kitchen and cook your food within a few minutes.
Real simple food that hits the spot. America! Fuck yea!
Yum
After Lucky clears your plate he hands you a fortune cookie and points at each member of you party and says "five dollah". So if you walk out the door giving him a dollar tip you got a darn good meal for $6. Better than crap ass Denny's.
If yer anything like me yer getting yer 4th or 5th beer and watching The Dark Knight Rises on blu-ray. That shit is amazing. Thats how I like to handle Christmas.
Fierce competition with Sam at the table. Notice the angry robot in the background.
Celebrating PrivatWormTits' birthday with some champagne mixed with strwberry juice. Tasted delicious.
Pumpkin never stood a chance. It was later smashed in the street.
Been getting crazy with the wok lately. Everything I make in it is an asian-larb experience.
Bacon wrapped jalapenos stuffed with philadelphia cream cheese. I made this large on purpose so one can see how greedy it is.
Double beer bong has been seeing alot of action.
GeneralPercy checkin in.
So my mom has been making me take home a bunch of boxes from the attic. Filled with old skate magazine gems. Here is the S.O.T.Y. issue with Andrew Reynolds. His part in The End blew minds and arguably sent Tom Penny into hibernation across the pond. Reynlold's has been on a tear ever since.
Here we have a tattooless Bam Margera. Remember him back when he actually skated? Back then he was way more focused on skateboarding instead of his stupid HIM band or whatever dumb radio show he's got. I loved Bam's part in Jump Off a Building (my 2nd favorite Toy Machine vid).
Another S.O.T.Y. issue. Bob Burnquist is still going bananas these day. I hear he's jumping out of a friggin' helicopter to switch caveman boardslide.
Fuckin' Shimizu, fuckin' yea!
This is where shit got real inspirational for me. Cardiel did this noseblunt slide in Sight Unseen and his part plus Heath Kirchart's made for one of the greatest Transworld videos of all time.
The Gonz. Most inspirational skater of all time. Stalefish.
The man, the myth, the legend. Other than Frankie Hill and Pat Duffy, Jamie Thomas paved the way for all you gnarly kids today and inspired me on my skateboard when I needed it the most. To this day Misled Youth and Welcome to Hell are my favorite videos of all time.
'Nuff of that skating business, back to the food
Thanks to Capt.KangRue for the J-Box sandwich cards. These went a long way, especially before payday.
El Zarape's chicken rolled tacos and a Amber Dos-Equis for $5.99! Not bad, just for good measure I also purchased a house margarita.
PrivateWormtits getting his drink on.
Board at work. Making wrestling bananas.
Not sure if I ever put this pic up on the blog, but yea thats me. Wallride at the Home ave. ditch.
Gotta document that beer opening.
Puffin and passin' away.
Where are we going you might ask?
Oh yea, looks great.
BornRetard, Mac and Cos at ItWasTheLight's time lapse premiere.
For those of you wondering what a time lapse is click here.
Anybody been to the Poor House yet? Its on 30th & Meade.... I think. Anyway they serve beer in a mason jar, take cash only and have a pool table. It gets 2 thumbs up in my opinion.
Christopher Ramsey Piech
I love this man. Most epic dude ever.
Anyway, Im closing it out with this little Christmas gift to you, from the EatFiend nation.
