While much of the country is battling frigid temperatures, San Diego is heating up with all sorts of fun, new additions. If you\u2019re looking for something that\u2019s fresh and exciting, here\u2019s what\u2019s happening in the 92101 zip code:<\/p>\n

Cremolose (840 Fifth Ave.)<\/strong>: For years, it was known as San Diego Hardware but now this historic space is home to Cremolose, the Gaslamp Quarter\u2019s new Italian caf\u00e9 and specialty dessert restaurant. Although the caf\u00e9 offers everything from paninis to salads and pizzas, it\u2019s the impressive dessert menu that will catch your eye. The 5,000 square-foot restaurant is the first of its kind in the U.S., featuring 24 flavors of authentic Italian gelato and 24 flavors of the Italian imported Cremolose\u2014a new type of gelato that\u2019s fresh-fruit based with a creamy texture of fruit, zest or nut mixed in. If that\u2019s not enough to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings, Cremolose also features 40 cakes made in-house in individual serving sizes as well as larger cakes, available to go. Concept designer and co-builder John Russo calls the Gaslamp Quarter a perfect location for what they want to do. \u201cThe restaurant has a very unique, European concept. When you walk in, it is almost like being in an authentic, Italian eatery.\u201d Cremolose is open Sunday to Thursday from 10 a.m. \u2013 2 a.m. and Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. \u2013 4 a.m.<\/p>\n

Ra Sushi (474 Broadway)<\/strong>: This popular restaurant has come up with the perfect solution for partygoers who are watching their waistline. Throughout the month of February, Ra Sushi is offering three new low-calorie skinny cocktails. Lychee-teenie, Skinny Ninja and Thin Ginger are less than 200 calories each. The fruity sweet cocktails may be light but they\u2019re packed full of flavor, so they\u2019re far from dull. We tried the Thin Ginger made with fresh strawberries, ginger and Voli Lemon Vodka as well as the Lychee-teenie: a sweet Asian lychee fruit mixed with Voli Vodka and Monin Agave Nectar. Our advice? Pair up the drinks with something from the 5 Spot Menu featuring popular appetizers that are only $5.\u00a0 Ra\u2019s specialty rolls, like the Crunchy Shrimp Tempura Roll or the Tootsy Maki, are sure bets. Of course, there\u2019s always our favorite, Pineapple Cheese Wontons.\u00a0\u00a0 Monday to Thursday, 9 p.m. \u2013 midnight.<\/p>\n

98 Bottles (2400 Kettner Blvd., Suite 110)<\/strong>: Known for its cool, rotating art, live entertainment and firm stand against large television screens and sports, this eclectic gathering space is a great place to catch a flick. Every Wednesday at 6 p.m., Movie Night is held in the lower lounge. \u201cTogether, with happy hour pricing all night, Movie Night is a fun mid-week thing to do,\u201d said Manager Jill Mesaros. All through February 98 Bottles will feature a His vs. Hers movie theme. In other words, they\u2019ll be showing chick flicks and guy movies every week. Some of the movie pairs include \u201cThe Hangover\u201d and \u201cBridesmaids;\u201d \u201cSex & the City\u201d and \u201cGangs of New York;\u201d and \u201cThe Notebook\u201d and \u201cFight Club.\u201d We heard about this place when they showed \u201cFerris Bueller\u2019s Day Off\u201d a few weeks ago. We hope they\u2019ll bring Ferris back soon.<\/p>\n

We want to hear from you:<\/p>\n
