In Cheap Eats season 4 episode 11, host Ali Khan is in San Diego, California, in search of the best surf 'n' turf deals the city has to offer. Starting his day off with breakfast, Ali heads to Kraken Coffee Co. to try their "Surf's Up Burrito," which contains chorizo, eggs, potatoes, and carne asada, all wrapped in a flour tortilla. The burrito is affordable at only $7.95 and is the perfect way to start the day.

Next, Ali heads to El Pescador Fish Market to try their fish tacos. The fish market has been operating for over 40 years and serves some of the freshest seafood in San Diego. Ali tries their "Original Fish Taco," which consists of a homemade corn tortilla, fresh Alaskan Pollock, cabbage, and homemade crema sauce. At only $2.69 per taco, it's no wonder why locals love this spot.

For lunch, Ali heads to Lolita's Mexican Food, which has been serving San Diego for over 30 years. He tries their carne asada fries, which comes topped with generously portioned slices of carne asada, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. The dish is a San Diego classic and Lolita's serves it up at an affordable price of only $9.89.

Ali's next stop is the Pacific Beach Fish Shop, which offers fresh seafood and the chance to create one's own surf 'n' turf combo. Ali chooses the "Big Combo," which includes a steak, a fish of his choice, and two sides. He goes with the swordfish and the classic French fries and coleslaw. The total cost is only $28, which is quite the deal for a freshly made surf 'n' turf meal.

For dinner, Ali heads to Odysea Lounge to try their fish and chips. The dish includes hand-battered fish that is fried to perfection and served with seasoned fries and a tartar sauce that is made in-house. The dish is not only affordable at $12.95 but also large enough to share with a friend.

Finally, Ali ends his day at Island Style Cafe, which serves Hawaiian-style cuisine in San Diego. He tries their "Loco Moco," which is a dish that consists of a juicy burger patty, rice, and a sunny-side-up egg, all topped with gravy. It's a hearty dish that is not only delicious but also affordable at only $9.95.

Throughout the episode, Ali showcases some of the best surf 'n' turf deals in San Diego. From affordable breakfast burritos to homemade fish tacos and classic carne asada fries, San Diego has a lot to offer. Whether you're visiting the city for the first time or you're a local looking for a new spot to try, Ali's picks are sure to satisfy any craving.
