The last day I was in San Diego, before Cara dropped me off at the airport, we ate at a restaurant called C Level. We sat outside near Coronado Bay, and the view was great. Downtown San Diego, the bridge to Coronado, and the island were all visible. There were navy ships and Coast Guard cutters and sailboats. We split a chicken Caesar salad and a pulled pork sandwich. The salad was so big we thought they had accidentally brought us each one instead of a split. Cara didn't even take a bite of her sandwich, instead saving it for dinner, and I had to take some meat off of mine in order to eat it. Everything was great.

I also ordered a drink from the martini list -- I cannot remember the name, but it was pirate themed. It had Captain Morgan spiced rum (my favorite), muddled cucumbers and honeyed lemons. It was really good, and I am determined to duplicate it. I tried tonight, but I put too much lemon, so it was really sour. I also don't exactly know what a "honeyed lemon" is, so I just mixed lemon juice and honey, but that really didn't work. I also couldn't muddle a cucumber because I lack the proper equipment, so I just put it in a food processor. Lacking a shaker, I used an old mayonnaise jar to shake it. What I came up with was OK, but I'm determined to get it right.
