Man, it was a hot couple of days, huh? Record high temps, 20 degrees above the norm. It was definitely sandwich weather. I decided to call in and do some takeout from a regular on my "sandwich rotation", SuperNatural Sandwiches.
I arrived a quarter after eleven, it seems that their current hours are from 11am to "between 230 and 330 PM", Monday to Saturday. There were already three people in line waiting for their order.
I was a bit confused about where the walk up window was as the "order here" mark on the ground was tight in front of a closed door and folks waiting just seemed to be hanging out with no social distancing. But all was fine once the nice young lady arrived at the makeshift counter to the right and greeted me. From there, it was a fast process and my order was ready to go.
There was no confusion as to how good this was. And as "FOY" Loren recommended before, the fries are quite good and hold up rather well for an hour or so.
Plump, moist shrimp, the roll held up well.
Delivered as expected. I actually wished they still did their sandwiches as salads during this time, but totally understand the limited menu.

Hope everyone is in good health and staying sane during this challenging time!
Thank you for your blog. I have been a loyal lurker since pretty much the beginning. I especially appreciate your blog posts during this time. I am in the "at risk" group so I've been home for the duration. Seeing your posts really provides a lift for me. Best wishes for health, Barbara

Since you like recommendations: Do you ever get out to the Vista area? If so, try Hungry Bear Deli/Subs. It's owned by one of the best guys I know, a friend since middle school, and named as an homage to a sandwich shop in Miami that fills us former miamians with such nostalgia, it's often the first stop off the plane! I've never been to so. cali, so I've never been to his place, but everything he posts looks amazing, and he has great yelp reviews (used to be in escondito, but moved to vista).
Just a suggestion...
That shrimp roll looks delicious. I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with shrimp lately. As a vegetarian for over 2 decades, and a very reluctant pescatarian for almost one decade, I don't usually eat or want fish/seafood unless someone serves it to me at their house (I'm a pescatarian for others' convenience). But for the past 2 months, it's been an obsession, the only food I think about. Very weird.

I do like recommendations H. Thanks! I think these times are making us crave all kinds of stuff...I know I have had a really weird strange craving over the last three weeks.

I usually get their sandwiches as a fried rice bowl instead. It's so much food I can't finish it in one sitting.

I tend to enjoy their salads during hot weather Junichi.....and you're right, the portions aren't small!
It was Kat!

Ditto Barbara’s comment! Didn’t know SS had fries or you could get fried rice instead of sandwiches, even more reason to go more often.

Hi RD - Those garlic fries are pretty good. I think they charge a buck extra to turn it into fried rice. Hope all is well!
