Looking back
The SD Foodie take
Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.
Two bowls of jambalaya with shrimp sit on an outdoor table beside a bottle of hot sauce, a bread basket and a glass of water, with a brick historic building behind them.
Roger captioned it with a joke about extra guests — the Whaley House, famous for ghost stories, sits right in the background. It is a very Old Town photo: history, patio and a bowl of Southern food.
The quick critique
What stood out
- Shrimp jambalaya
- Patio seating by the Whaley House
- Hot sauce on the table
Bottom line
Archive verdict
A Creole meal with the most San Diego backdrop possible — and a ghost joke to match.
