Brand New Prototype Design and Experience
Event Will Benefit Samaritan Counseling Center
LAKE FOREST, Calif., July 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The grand opening of the new Johnny Rockets Express at Coronado Center's Food Court will take place on Saturday, July 23, 11 am – 1 pm. This celebration marks the debut of one of the first few Johnny Rockets Express prototypes to open around the country this year. Johnny Rockets Express is designed for smaller footprints and includes elements of the new Johnny Rockets 2.0 - the brand refresh that was announced last April. The new Johnny Rockets Express has a new logo and design, new uniforms, and new kitchen equipment that cuts food production times by more than half without sacrificing the superior quality and consistency of all the menu items at Johnny Rockets.
"I and my team at Johnny Rockets are excited to welcome the community to our new restaurant in the Coronado Center's Food Court," said Charles Wong, Franchise Owner and Operator of the new Johnny Rockets in Albuquerque. "Johnny Rockets is known for its 100% farm-raised beef burgers that are never frozen and made-to-order as well as hand spun shakes. Our new restaurant has state-of-the art kitchen equipment designed to produce the same great quality of foods that Johnny Rockets is known for, but at a faster pace, so that we can speed up service to all our guests who are grabbing meals on the go while they shop or stopping by for a quick meal for lunch or dinner."
