PJ's picks, a short drive up the coast
- The Kraken, South Coast Hwy 101, Cardiff (1.6 mi up the 101 from Belly Up). Beach bar in Cardiff with live bands. PJ: "it's close and they have bands."
- Seaside Market, Newcastle Ave, Cardiff (2.2 mi up the 101 from Belly Up). The Cardiff market behind the Cardiff Crack tri-tip, the cut PJ cooks for Just the Tip.
- Just the Tip: Cardiff Crack tri-tip from Seaside Market, machine-cooked to 131, as a $20 plate PJ brings to you before doors. How it works.
Sunday before an afternoon show
The Solana Beach Certified Farmers' Market runs Sundays, 12pm to 4pm, at 444 S. Cedros Ave., on Cedros like Belly Up. Every market this week.
