San Ysabel: Dudley’s & Julian Pie Co.

Yesterday k had the day off from school so we did a mini getaway.  At first I thought about going to Julian, but since it is kind of far for a day trip, we made it into an overnight trip by camping in Anza Borrego State Park. 

Our first stop was San Ysabel, which is just outside of Julian, for lunch.  We went to Dudley’s Famous Bakery for sandwiches.  We ordered one of their specials, which was roast beef on jalapeno cheddar bread and one custom turkey/ham/cheddar for the kids, $7.99 each.  Luckily, we just beat two tour buses that made a stop.  There were plenty of tables to eat at, so that was nice.  011

It was windy, as you can tell.

The meat to bread ratio in the roast beef sandwich was too high for my liking.  It was tasty, though.  The kids’ sandwich was just a normal sandwich, and since it was the same price, I would go for one of their specials.003

Yes, we brought our own chips and drinks because we’re frugal like that.

Just across the parking lot is an outlet of Julian Pie Company.  I had read this location is bigger than the one in Julian, and less crowded, so we made this our second stop.  We shared a slice of dutch apple pie (warmed up) with cinnamon ice cream.

I guess you can’t really see the pie under the ice cream, but trust us, it was good.
