Erin from Citysearch has a weekly spot on Channel 933 every Thursday morning to talk about must-try restaurants.  Last week, she recommended Pastalini, a cheap new restaurant in Miramar.  Think Subway, but for pasta!

I like turkey burgers and shakes.  I like Ruby's Diner in Mission Valley, but what they don't have is servers in big wigs who have choreographed dances and a live DJ!  I went on Valentine's Day and that was a mistake.  The restaurant was packed with families and kids' birthday parties.  Our party of two had to wait 45 minutes for a table.  Larger parties were told up to 2 hours!

I think it was during the summer when I first noticed the sign for Mille Feuille.  I eagerly awaited their grand opening.  I was very interested in their Chocolate Buffet...  But, when they opened last year, I read a lot of negative comments (some about the attitude of their servers and some about the relatively small servings) and decided not to try them out.
