instantly lost power and now has miss...

Here is the scenario...

Driving today through a nice canyon road...while going up a small hill with some nice tight turns, suddenly, car lost power and developed a severe miss. Definately not firing on all cylinders now. I had good oil pressure and the car was not running hot. No serious noises now other then the sound of only 2 or 3 cylinders working and some slight backfiring...I was able to nurse it the few miles back to my house.

What are the likely causes that I should review before I take the plunge and tow to the mechanic?

What are the least severe to the most severe possibilities to consider?

If I can't get to the bottom of it myself...any recommendations on which shop in the mission viejo (south orange county) area will not abuse me?\

thx
