B12 THE COAST NEWS DEC. 16, 2011 BREAKFAST notjustontheweekendsanymore OPEN STARTING MAY 16 EVERYDAY V DOORSOPENAT9AM 148 Aberdeen Dr · Cardiff, CA 92007 (760) 753·6707 I really think it would be a little awkward to refer to myself as a foodie when visiting the classic Tip Top Meats in Carlsbad. Or in general really … I simply like to eat and write about it.The foodie movement is a good one and yes, I admit to being one in the general meaning of the word, but at Tip Top, I put on my guy-who-likes-to-eat hat and join the significant following that has that same attitude. I should say eat-andshop hat because the meat and deli counter and store are equally compelling. They are also sporting solar panels on the roof now, which is a great mix of forward thinking combined with the traditional goodness below. It’s really nice to have this slice of Old World deli, VOTED “BEST BREAKFAST” THE ORIGINAL “WE’VE GOT HUEVOS!”® La Costa 7670 El Camino Real 760-943-8182 Open Daily 6am-3pm Breakfast & Lunch San Marcos 101 S.

DAVID BOYLAN Lick the Plate store and restaurant right off I-5 and Palomar Airport Road. They have a smokehouse, sausage kitchen and produce a wide variety of meat products, including smoked bacon, chicken, turkey, pastrami, corned beef, suckling pigs, pork, quail, ducks and geese.That’s just the meat counter and just a sampling. The store is full of German and other gourmet products and there is an extensive wine and beer section. While this may be expected in an urban setting, it’s an oasis in suburban Carlsbad. This column could have been written based on the frequency of my visits the past few years but I decided Across from the Flower Fields 100 combinations under 600 calories BREAKFAST, LUNCH, DINNER CATERING 5617 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad (between Car Country Dr & Palomar Airport Rd) 760-444-3102 “Char, Eva and the substantial meat counter at Tip Top Meats” Photo by David Boylan to go back for a refresher lunch and Sunday breakfast. The ever-present breakfast or lunch line is actually a good thing as there are so many options and I personally need the time to figure it out. A change of mind several times is common so go with it. Breakfast recently was highlighted by the Big John Breakfast, which could be the subject of an entire column. It consists of three eggs any style, home fried potatoes, toast or French toast with your choice of any two of their delicious smokehouse bacon, pork link sausage, or polish sausage, bratwurst or ham with free sausage and meat refills so to speak. Eaters rejoice! And remember, this is Tip Top Meats so the sausage is the real deal made in-house. I was turned on to the French toast by a guy in line who said it was an option with the Big John Breakfast and the best he has had. So I followed his lead and it was what appeared to be a deepfried version that was as much like a doughnut as French toast and completely unreal. The two-slice mix with the already substantial meat and egg extravaganza was perfect portioning. OK, so you get all that for $7.98, are you kidding me? We also tried the Lox-N- Bagel with tomatoes, onions, capers and cream cheese with a very generous serving of lox. It was kind of a random breakfast surf and turf with my sausage fest, but it worked and not surprisingly, both provided a healthy leftover box. I went big with lunch and ordered the Rouladen, which is one of my favorite German dishes and normally a dinner thing as it’s quite substantial but I had no selfcontrol. Rouladen is round TURN TO LICK THE PLATE ON B13

Sargent spoke to the Del Mar Club about Kiwanis International’s plan to eliminate neonatal tetanus, which still kills thousands of babies and mothers in third-world countries. For information, call Chuck Phillips at (858) 354- 6536. Courtesy photo steak stuffed with bacon, pickle, onion and mustard. It’s served with gravy, mashed potatoes or fries, red cabbage, sauerkraut, soup or salad and a dinner roll for $8.98. Everything on that plate is top-notch stuff including the pickle. I’ve never had a soup that disappointed either. There are many sandwiches to choose from and I’ve had the Reuben, which as an extra bonus to being a solid sandwich gives you an extra half a sandwich with your regular sandwich order. Odd, but delightfully so at $7.49. I’ve tried the pork loin cutlet sandwich also which was good but needed the mayo to moisten it up a bit. If your lunch allows it, Tip Top always has some nice German brews on tap and a wine option. So this is the part where I would go into the virtues of the meat counter, deli, sausage aisle, wild game, baked goods and sweets. Column length is upon me so just trust me, it makes going there for a meal even more fun. The elevator-style music station playing classic rock and holiday music does not annoy as it might in other locations. It adds to the charm and may aid in the digestion of large quantities of rock solid goodness. Tip Top Meats is located at 6118 Paseo del Norte in Carlsbad. They are open daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. For more information, THE COAST NEWS OCEANSIDE — Oceanside American Legion Post 146 meets every third Saturday of the month at the Senior Citizen Center at 455 Country Club Lane in Oceanside.

In addition, the pack earned the Santa Margarita District Quality Unit Award, the National Summertime Son rides for father’s fight against ALS SOLANA BEACH — Motivated by his father’s battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease, Sculpt • SPX Pilates & Cycle owner Dean Grafos is hosting the first annual Steve Grafos Tribute Ride and Sculpt for ALS from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Dec. 17. The event will take place in the Solana Beach studio, 437 S. Coast Highway 101, Suite 201, and is designed to raise funds to help increase awareness of and try to find a cure for ALS. Grafos plans to ride an indoor cycle for the entire 12 hours, along with other interested participants who will support the cause by either riding one of the other 11 bikes or taking SPX Pilates classes in increments of one hour or more. “Our family was devastated when we found out my father had ALS earlier this year,” Grafos said. “The most shocking and terrible part of it all is the speed at which this disease has robbed my dad of LICK THE PLATE CONTINUED FROM B12 From left, Pilates and cycle fitness center owner Dean Grafos, his mother Thean and father Steve, will host the first annual Steve Grafos Tribute Ride. Courtesy photo his health. So far there is no treatment and no cure, and we are going to do what we can to fight this with all we’ve got.” The event invites participants to secure donations in advance and then commit to riding for as long as they can, or by making a donation to take SPX Pilates classes. The goal is to have both rooms filled throughout the entire 12 hours. All funds raised will go to the San Diego ALS Chapter in Steve’s name. Individuals interested either in participating in the sculpt and/or cycle sessions or making a donation can visit sculptmove.com or call (858) 755-4779.

I am planning to ride at least three hours alongside Dean. I hope other cyclists will want to complement their “Season of Giving” by taking part in this incredible story.” Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive, degenerative neuromuscular disease that attacks specific nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord,resulting in a loss of ability to initiate and control muscle movement, and ultimately total paralysis. What makes ALS particularly devastating is while the patient’s ability to move is progressively lost, there is little or no effect on the mind, leaving the patient acutely aware of their continually decreasing abilities.
