The Chesslers stop for a bite on the way to Borrego Springs.
Note our dog Scout under the table. |
Because San Diego County is over 4,000 square miles, it is possible to get in your car and drive two hours and still never leave the county. For our staycation this August, we had the crazy idea to head northeast to Borrego Springs and the Anza Borrego State Park. I say crazy because this part of the county gets hot, think triple digits hot. But more on that later. On the way to Borrego, we stopped in Ramona, a town of about 20,000 with a touch of quirkiness. We stopped for dinner at Ramona Cafe and discovered to our delight it was right next door to the London Bakery. The London Bakery has a coat-of-arms outside, and the British royal family inside. Okay, so the Queen of England is a cutout, but the scones and pastries are very British and very good.

In addition to a lot citrus fields and vineyards, Ramona also boasts a camel dairy and a drive-through egg store. Yes, a drive through egg store. These eggs come straight from the chicken, as the egg store is right next to the huge Demler Brothers egg farm.
