[quote=deadzone][quote=sdrealtor]Not along the coast. Five Guys just opened in Encinitas. Kohls is about to open next door in an old Albertson’s location. Borders left and Urban Outfitters came to the Forum Shoppes. Pacific Coast Grill is expanding and moving to the Old Charlie’s by the Sea location on the 101. The just added a ton of new retail space at the Carlsbad Company Stores and we got a Roadrunner Sports store among other things. And perhaps the biggest (still unconfirmed) news is that Nordstron rack is coming to Encinitas town Center where Linen’s and things left whil;e Target next door isundergoing a substantial expansion/remodel. We are rocking along the coast![/quote]
Yeah a hamburger chain moving in is a real sign of economic health. I noticed 5 guys opening up everywhere, I’m not too impressed with their food or atmosphere. Seems like they are oversaturating an already saturated market (saturated fat market?). The one new burger chain I do like is Smashburger, that is a real step up from In&Out or 5-guys and not too expensive.[/quote]
Its funny because I put five guys first with the express intent of seeing which loser would seize upon that while ignoring high end restaurants, high end retail and Nordstroms. I figured it would probably be deadzone. you are the best!!!
BTW, i ate at Smashburger in del mar a month ago. it sucked. Not even close to being in the same league as Five Guys or even In n Out.
