A Community Reeling from Months of Disruptive Construction Asks: Was It Worth It?
By Dan Friedell | Voice of San Diego
Chris Dainty is wearing his ever-present Padres hat and a black T-shirt from Kelly’s Olympian, a bar and music club in Portland. He is standing behind the bar at Key and Cleaver, his burger restaurant on the corner of University and Euclid avenues in City Heights. Kelly’s opened in 1902, Key and Cleaver in 2023.
Dainty is talking about his BBQ bacon burger — the beef comes from a ranch in Julian, the sauce is his own recipe and the bun is from Bread and Cie. The beers on tap are from San Diego’s breweries.
After a couple decades of working in bars and restaurants, he and his wife, Jenn Hager, opened their place in 2023 just as a major road construction project started down the block.

Today, the fine art portrait photographer uses what she calls “visual medicine” to help breast cancer survivors reclaim their sense of beauty and power through her nonprofit, Womanity Portrait Foundation.
Semenova’s journey to this calling unfolded gradually. After studying at the Moscow Academy of Photography, she dedicated years to capturing landscapes and events, seeking her artistic voice.
