    “hmm...”

    Roger's noncommittal 'hmm...' fragment doesn't reveal specifics, consistent with a middling 3-star rating for this Mission Beach dive bar. Roger's row listed only 'San Diego, CA' with no neighborhood; matched here to the actively-reviewed Beachcomber bar at 2901 Mission Blvd, Mission Beach, the only current business by this name found in San Diego. (From an unpublished Yelp draft review, never posted publicly.)

    Mexican

    A taco shop Roger has hit up since his skating days as a kid, rating it 5 stars for always-juicy, flavorful carne asada fries best eaten on a bench by the water along with a rum popey (egg nog drink).
