blizzards headquarters, go take a tour.

I'm sure there are a ton of things to do down there. However, since we only have 2 full days there I was looking for those "do-not-miss" things. What are some good restaurants to eat at? Don't need to be outrageously expensive, just good.

Chronic Taco. Nick's in Laguna Beach.
