Don’t Have a Car? Here’s a Great Food Idea

Face it, you can’t eat at a food truck for every meal…

Get food from San Diego’s best restaurants delivered directly to your hotel (or anywhere)! Go to Postmates and use code NXHFU to get $10 off your first delivery!

Some of our favorites available on Postmates: Crack Shack, Kebab Shop, Burger Lounge, The Mission, Cafe Gratitude, Ike’s Place, and many other great options!

2013 Food Trucks at Comic-Con

2013 Food Trucks at Comic-Con

The past two years, there has been a good food truck presence at Comic-Con.  I have not heard anything about this I love food trucksyear’s schedule yet, but if you are going to be visiting San Diego and eating out ANYWHERE, I highly recommend signing up for and downloading the app MOGL. It gets you 10% back on LOTS and LOTS of restaurants and food trucks throughout San Diego, and you don’t have to check in or even know when you are dining at a participating restaurant. I’ve earned around $25 back without even trying!! Annnnd…. you get $10 free for signing up!

You can read even more about why I love MOGL here or just SIGN UP!

Check back here for updates on food truck events during Comic-Con! I will update this as soon as I get any details!!
