Just a couple of things for a typical San Diego "June gloom" Saturday.
The Burger Joint Replacing SuperNatural Sandwiches:
While heading back to the office after picking up lunch yesterday, I noticed new signage was up on the now former location of SuperNatural Sandwiches, so I took a quick detour into the parking lot.
Well, so that gentleman I ran into while checking out what was going on here back in April was right. The location is turning into a burger and beer shop. I cracked up when I noticed "smashburgers" on the sign. I guess smashburgers are this year's birria or K(orean) f(ried) c(hicken)?
As I was leaving the parking lot I noticed the signage on the side of the shop. Both for the Burger Joint and also the Pizza Joint, which is also in this mall. I'm guessing the folks from the Pizza Joint is taking over this space?
Sad to see SuperNatural's run come to an end; after all, I'd been a customer from the days in the San Diego Public Market, but things were not quite the same, at least to me, after new ownership took over. So perhaps this change is for the best.

Zhengxin Chicken Steak Coming to Convoy:
While driving back from Nijiya this past Sunday, I noticed new signage in the former location of Mochinut on Convoy, so I turned into the parking lot and took a look and a photo.
I made a mental note to check things out online, but didn't need to after reading this on Eater San Diego. According to the post, Zhengxin Chicken Steak has more than 20,000 outlets!
I'm surprised this didn't open at UTC!

Hope everyone is having a great Saturday!
Sad about the Supernatural. I hope Zhengxin will last longer than the previous owners (Mochinut and Bite Sized Bakery)

Yes, sad to see SuperNatural close. It'll be interesting to see how Zhengxin does Elle!
Hope you're having a wonderful weekend Kat!

Bummer about Super Natural, but always thought they were expensive

To me Supernatural was over when the original owners sold it. I do miss the siren sando.

They were ST; but the quality of the seafood, at least under the original owners was quite good.
I agree Junichi!

Not surprised to see Mochinut go away. That is a franchise I have never understood. People only buy them once.
