San Diego Happy Half Hour Podcast: Episode 10

The gateway drink to sour beers, a beloved Mexican eatery opens a new location, fried chicken-scented sunscreen, and more

By Archana Ram

In this week’s Happy Half Hour, Erin Chambers Smith and Troy Johnson along with producer Archana Ram dive deep into the city’s dining and drinking news, like El Zarape adding a third location, and a new ice cream café in Kearny Mesa that’s serving rolled ice cream. We also chat about Starbucks’s new FoodShare program launch in San Diego, the best and worst school lunch snacks, and how pizza can make you more productive at work.

And what’s happy hour without drinks? San Diego Magazine beer blogger Bruce Glassman stops by with his expert knowledge on sours, Stone’s new CEO who comes from a juice background, and our collaboration project: The San Diego Brewery Guide. Plus, he shares his top picks for kid- and dog-friendly breweries in the city.

We also delve into the best things we ate this week, like the pesto and potato pizza at One Door North and why a $36 pizza at Herb & Wood is worth every penny.

Also: fried chicken-scented SPF from KFC. Believe it.
