Just Another Day in La Jollaβ¦ π
You come to La Jolla for fresh seafood, and somehow the seafood comes to you.
Looks like this little guy decided to take a stroll through the neighborhood before heading back to the coast. No reservation, no table, just casually blocking traffic like he owns the place.
Meanwhile, if youβre actually craving some crab, seafood & good eats, you know where to go!
