"Miguel Escobedo plans to open a permanent restaurant this summer in a former Chipotle space in downtown San Francisco; per restaurant newsletter California Eating, he hopes to return to the city where he grew his huge following, selling Impossible vegan burritos and riffs on chicken adobo and Filipino food culture. Escobedo told California Eating he’ll begin with to‑go lunch only, then expand into weekend brunches with DJ sets. The project fits Escobedo’s profile — he’s known not just for outstanding pastor and inventive dishes, and for co‑founding Papalote, but for his longstanding music career in the Bay — and follows the closure of his food trailer in January 2025. There are scant details so far, including the specific address; an article update on March 24, 2025 notes these ongoing plans." - Paolo Bicchieri
