If you squint your ears he seems to be singing Devilicious
........
Devilicious is my favorite Food Truck in San Diego
San Diego, California
Devilicious actually has two trucks so they can be in two places at once.
Deviliciously ingenius.
Butter Poached Lobster Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Devilicious's Signature Dish
( Lobster, Melted Cheeses, Caramelized Onion, Oven Roasted Roma Tomato
on Butter Toasted Sourdough.)
Rich, creamy, chewy and delicious. Emphasis on rich.
Rich from the lobster and no I don't mean it's expensive. Well it is expensive but
it also tastes very lobstery, which is a good thing.
Too many places overcook lobster and turn it into a rubbery mess.
Devilicious gets it right.
The crispy toasted bread takes it over the edge.
I might prefer this to a lobster quesadilla for the texture of the toasted bread.
Pretty much blows away a soggy tortilla.
Very tasty and worth the effort to locate them just for this alone.
All Crab Crab Cake Sandwich
Make it Benedict Style with a Fried Egg
Toasted Sourdough English Muffin.
I do not believe I had ever had an egg on crab before.
Wow, glad we took the recommendation and went for it.
This sandwich is already pretty dang good
and better than most "Crab Cake" sandwiches
that can be had most anywhere. But they usually use Krab. Or better yet..."Fish"
All Crab meat makes a difference. The egg just put it over the top. Delicious.
Usually my wife works her way around a menu and doesn't like to repeat so she can try different things. Apparently she really enjoyed the CCC because on our second visit she got it again.
Blackened Prime Rib Sandwich
(Shredded Lettuce, Red Onion, Horseradish Sour Cream on French Roll.)
I love prime rib, and I tore this sandwich up. Too much bread for the amount of the perfectly prepared, not actually Blackened, meat though. Of course I would prefer it with like at least twice the meat.
Then again, I am a pig.
Burger Du Jour
Bacon Cheeseburger
As you can see, it's served on butter-toasted bread rather than a bun.
I prefer it this way although I never knew that before.
Quite possibly the second or third best burger I have ever had.
The meat was cooked to perfection, on the rare side of medium, incredibly juicy.
Highly seasoned and devilicious. Peppery, savory and definitely delicious.
See how they get the cheese on the edges to get sort of crispy?
This burger was a gooey, tasty mess.
The bacon was thick and delicious, but a tad undercooked.
I would prefer it a bit crispier, especially to go with such a juicy meat patty.
It did not keep it from being one of the single greatest burgers ever, just nit-picking.
The bread is soft and perfect. The meat seasoned to perfection, moist and juicy.
Ample cheese, nice and creamy. So yeah, my one suggestion to just totally push this beast over the edge: crispier bacon.
Cubano (Cuban Sandwich)
(Virginia Ham, Pulled Pork, Swiss Cheese, Pickle, Onion, Dijon)
I have never been to Cuba. I don't know anything about Cuban Food but I love Cuban Sandwiches.
Not too easy to find around here but I always enjoy them when I do.
Whenever I watch Dexter and they order these Cubanos at the roadside stands I crave them. Then I have to find one. Fortunately Devilicious makes one and it is a buttery, creamy, cheesy, tangy, tasty slice of deliciousness. Double dose of pork; ham and pulled are what makes it unique.
Also the addition of mustard and pickle.
Devilicious excels at variations on grilled cheese sandwiches.
I love that they keep changing and experimenting with different menu items.
Truffled Parmesan Fries
Fantastic fries. More of the Belgium style that is sort of becoming popular, and that's a good thing. A great thing actually. The truffle oil adds a lot of flavor and because of it I do not find it necessary to smother ketchup on them. They are the perfect size. I prefer the thinner type over the huge thick ones. Also, perfect texture, not too soggy but not fried to a crisp. Just a great balanced freedom fry.
The parmesan adds even more creamy and tangy flavor. Love these fries.
I just wish they still had Satan Fries!
I don't even know what Satan Fries are. They just sound awesome.
Entering Smuggler's Cove and descending these stairs is like
stepping into a Time Machine, or at least a Time Warp.
A time where pre-mixed artificially sweetened vodka cocktails do not exist.
An alternate universe, a wondrous place, where drinks are hand crafted,
with natural, fresh ingredients, and worth waiting for.
As you immerse yourself in this wondrous environment, you will experience...
proper music played at perfect volume, not too loud that it drowns conversation,
but audible. Provides a pleasant background for the cozy setting,
sets a mood.
(like wallpaper, as Martin Denny called it)
Thank Lono, No Televisions.
Demerara Dry Float
"Dry and Tart. A vibrant mix of exotic passion fruit, lemon, lime, and demerara rum..
...served with a side of danger."
The Side of Danger is Lemon Hart Demerara 151 Rum.
There is 80 proof Demerara in the drink.
Demerara has a wonderful taste and is one of my favorite types of rum.
Fresh squeezed lemon and lime along with passion fruit mix perfectly tart
for an outstanding, refreshing, complex and simply perfect cocktail,
pretty much unavailable anywhere else.
The key is not too sweet. Perfectly tart and dry, as in not syrupy.
Now the debate rages on regarding whether or not to stir in the added shot or let it float as the ice slowly melts and blends it in. I personally prefer to let it float, especially in this drink, as the name clearly states.
Allowing the rum float to slowly blend with the rest of the drink also keeps it from becoming too watered down as a result of the melting ice.
we ran across this amazing food truck accidentally.
Later learned they have more than one truck and apparently an actual restaurant.
We were discussing where and what to eat and couldn't decide between big burritos or maybe some Thai or Indian Food. Then we saw several trucks including this one, which, according to this..
was well liked and voted Best Of the Bay.
Menu listed Chicken Tikka Masala Burritos.
Done deal. Chicken Tikka Masala is one of my all time favorite meals.
I also pretty much enjoy any kind of burrito you're layin' down.
Two great things together again for the first time.
Why didn't I think of this?
Big huge onion slice for first bite. Only the beginning...
Chicken Tikka Masala Burrito
This just kept getting better and better with every bite.
Oh my Kali, this is just ridiculously delicious.
Pretty much exactly as good as I imagined it to be...
It's Chicken Tikka Masala, in a Burrito!
Large chunks of organic (Fulton Valley) chicken breast, nicely cooked.
Decent amount of tangy rice. Basmati? I don't know, but it was good.
Just enough sauce to make it spicy, gooey and tasty without being a sloppy mess.
The spice level was excellent for me, hot enough to make it interesting
but not an endurance test.
Bottom Line:
Holy Grail of Indian Mexican Fusion.
2006 Barrel Aged Decadence
Imperial Evil Dead Red Ale aka...
Dead By Dawn
American Strong Ale
11% ABV The 2006 Decadence was aged in Heaven Hill Bourbon Barrels
San Diego, California "Dead by Dawn, was inspired by our own seasonal specialty ale, Evil Dead Red. What if we made it bigger, bolder and even more evil?"
Trick Or Treat?
Definitely a Treat.
Been enjoying this on tap lately in the Alesmith Tasting Room.
Color is a nice deep dark reddish-brown.
Smells like a bourbon barrel aged stout. Rich smell of oaky vanilla, and caramel.
First sip is a whole different thing though, almost like a trick. A tasty, complex, evil trick. Taste is deliciously sour.The bourbon barrel aging characteristics are there but this is unlike any other BBA Ale I have had. Along with the sweet flavors from the Heaven Hill Bourbon Barrels; vanilla, caramel, & toffee, there is also an unexpected, wonderful sour taste of apple cider vinegar which blends with the already flavorful
toffee, dates, and chocolate maltiness.
Makes this Ale into a Monster.
Bottom Line:
This is one hell of a brew.
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Alesmith's Decadence Anniversary Ale was originally brewed in 2005 to celebrate our first decade in business. The brewers at Alesmith had such a great time concocting Decadence that they decided to make it an annual event, and brew a new style each year to commemorate our Anniversary.
Piney, citrusy hop smell.
Tastes pretty much the same.
Caramel malt background. Strong hop flavors up front.
Sweet, tangy citrus taste and slightly resinous mouthfeel.
Grapefruit, caramel, and pine.
Dry, crisp, piney finish.
Overall, somewhat similar to Port's Shark Attack. Perhaps it's a West Coast Red.
Meaning hop heavy, with a subtler, underlying malt background.
Had this on tap, very fresh, at Brewery.
Bottom Line:
6.66 %
