Brunch in Coronado

Happy Monday! We had such beautiful weather this weekend and it would've been a shame not to take advantage of it, especially since Alan is finally off of bed rest. Yep, it's true. He is now limping around with a cane. Our life has been so consumed with doctors appointments and battling obstacles, that we haven't had much time for romance. Luckily for us, my mother-in-law offered to take Lyla on a trip to Lego Land so, we finally had a day to ourselves to do whatever we wanted to. With Alan still recovering we decided to stay local and opted for a quick ride into Coronado for a bite to eat.

One of my favorite places to dine at in Coronado is Leroy's Kitchen + Lounge. They provide provide a seasonal menu, ensuring that the freshest ingredients make up your meal. I am a big fan of their kale salad, but this time I went with an Ahi Poke Salad and it was... ah-maze-ing. Alan decided on the Salmon Toast, (sorry, no pic.) which was equally delicious. We shared a bowl of Truffled Fries that came with a side of pomegranate ketchup and herb aioli sauce (my favorite). For his drink, Alan had an old fashion which he described had "the perfect amount of everything; zest, bitter, and sweet". My favorite drink (like ever) is their house made red sangria, I literally crave it. If sangria is your thing, their's is a must-try. Everything was tasty and satisfying -- zero complaints. Leroy's Kitchen + Lounge also offers pet friendly dining on their patio, which was perfect for us since Arlo is still a tad too young to be left alone. The staff was loving towards her ( I mean , who wouldn't be) and provided her with a bowl of fresh water. This restaurant was perfect for our first date (post accident).

If you're ever in the Coronado area, I highly recommend you take a chance on this place you wont be disappointed, especially if you're a lover of fresh local ingredients, eclectic cuisine, and enjoy a drink or two (maybe a pitcher, no one is judging). After brunch we headed for a little walk along Coronado beach, it couldn't have been a more perfect day.

I hope you all have a lovely and productive week!
