Vera Cruz Fish House - help!

[lizardbrains]

Winoweenie,

I have yet to receive my phone book from my phone co., even though I've lived here for a few weeks. Anyways... I went online to find the Vera Cruz Fish House, which you recommended. I think you said it's in Carlsbad - is that correct? In the online yellow pages I was able to find one in San Marcos, and one in Temecula. Are either of those the one you were talking about? IK and I were wondering where exactly it is! We're looking forward to checking out your recommendation!

One (2) more question(s)... what do you recommend at the restaurant? Any dish in particular?

WW,

Thanks! I found it! It's not far from me at all! I'm looking forward to checking it out.

P.S. I can't wait to get a phone book - you don't realize how much you take those for granted. The ph. co. says I should get mine on Thurs. We'll see...!

LB, try using the 'net when you're without a phone book. Go to AltaVista.com or google.com or Yahoo.com and use their search features to look up references to the business you're interested in. I used one of 'em yesterday to find a product vendor for my wife's business, when all I had was the company name. Found it in KY, complete with address, map location and phone number, all in less than five minutes.
I just used it to find your fish houses, two of 'em, in three minutes:
Fish House Vera Cruz, 360 Via Vera Cruz, San Marcos, (760)744-8000; and 26700 Ynez Rd, Temecula, 909)506-2899. Take your pick.

Attaboy Hotsie. One problemo. The one she wanted is new and only 2-4 miles from her house. The other two are like going frum Heliotes to Dallas. WW I noted the search engines for me-very-own usage howm-so-ebber. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hotwine, thanks for the tip. I normally use Yahoo, so I'll try the other two in the future as well! I often forget there are other search engines - Yahoo tends to work well for me, and I just don't think to look outside the box!

This place must be great if it's branched out to have 3 locations!

Yahoo is the one that worked in this case. Go to its Yellow Pages button, and it will come up with a template to specify the city and state you wish to search; type in the city as Oceanside CA; when the city page comes up, type in the name of the business, and Yahoo!
