Just a short post for this post-election Wednesday.
Goodbye Seoul BBQ, hello Roadem BBQ:
I'm thinking the writing had been on the wall for a while at Seoul BBQ. I drove by the other day and saw this sign.
Am I the only one who thinks this name is a bit too close to "roadkill"? The kiss of death for Seoul was when I saw they were doing AYCE Korean BBQ, basically trying to compete with Manna. So now it's being replaced by another AYCE joint? For some reason the line, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" came to mind. you know the song, right? Won't get fooled again……..

Paris Baguette:
Driving past the location for the upcoming H Mart, I saw the sign for Paris Baguette posted.
For those who haven't heard of them, this is a chain of Korean-French Bakeries that are sometimes in Supermarkets. From what I heard, there are going to be two of them. One in this H Mart location and one in the new location of Zion Market. I guess they're covering all bases, huh?
9440 Mira Mesa Blvd

and
7655 Clairemont Mesa Blvd
San Diego, CA 92111
Ha ha, road kill!
Can’t wait for H-Mart and the new Zion to open!
“pick up my guitar and play….just like yesterday….”
oh yum! a french/korean combo bakery sounds fun and different
LOL CC! Yep, that’s the one……
Hi Lynnea – I’ve had stuff from them before….it wasn’t too bad. It’s a pretty popular chain.
Hey, I’ve seen both signs! I didn’t get a close look at the Roadem name, but maybe they’re trying to tell us something about their menu. I’ve never been to Paris Baguette (I wondered if there was a banh mi connection), but I’m all for more bakeries.
I’m not digging the Roadem name but I’m super excited about Paris Baguette! I go to one up in the Bay when I visit my parents. It’s a bit pricey but I end up getting so lost in all the baked goods and always end up with a ton.
Hi Sandy – LOL!
Hi Kirbie – I almost thought it said “RoadEnt” at first….. man, my eyesight is getting pretty bad! Soon you’ll have not one, but two Paris Baguettes to choose from!
Does anyone know when H-Mart is set to open? I heard end of October, then I heard some dispute about the sign…I thought they would try and open for “Chuseok” but I guess not.
Hi “A” – I heard November 17th…..
The 17th it is. http://www.hmart.com/hboard/down/board/store_event_new/San-Diego_1440.jpg
Thanks for the link Roland……I have a feeling it’s going to be a madhouse on that day!
