The Best Brunch Spots In San Diego - San Diego - The Infatuation

"Nectarine Grove is Encinitas personified: the menu is loaded with wellness buzzwords and plenty of gluten-free organic options, though it could satisfy almost anyone on any diet. We go for the roasted vegetable bowl with herby cashew cheese and lemon vinaigrette, and the plantain-crusted fried chicken and waffle—the chicken is light and crunchy on the outside with tender white meat within. Nectarine Grove works whether you’re cruising by for a mid-day brunch or just stopping in for a quick mint chip smoothie (with hemp seeds and cacao nibs) pre- or post-yoga class." - candice woo, cora lee, ligaya malones
