| Owner Tracy Borkum’s Kensington Grill remains a favorite, not only for neighborhood folks but for all of San Diego. Remodeled for the second time in its 15-year history, it includes both a sophisticated foyer-cum-gift shop and a more accommodating patio. Ambience plays a big part here: the décor is subdued, the lighting low, the mood hip. Chef Hanis Cavin serves up some interesting fare. On the small plate menu, try the duck potpie filled with chard, carrots, trumpet mushrooms and cippolini onions, or the shrimp waffle with Creole butter. But don’t overlook the hog bar, unique to San Diego, which allows a sampling of Kensington’s favorite pork served on a wood board with bites of pork cheek hash, caramelized fennel and leek sausage, plus spicy rinds and, of course, a selection of bacon. |
