"When dine-in service was banned across San Diego County, I learned that local chef Gabriel Ferguson had just opened his first restaurant, a Southern-styled eatery specializing in biscuits. At Sunnyboy Biscuit Company on Park Boulevard he and his employees pivoted to takeout only but kept the entire menu intact, staying open daily from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., which has allowed him to keep paying staff and serve the surrounding community. The quick-service menu is built on homemade biscuits and ranges from biscuits and gravy and eggs and biscuits to lunchtime biscuit sandwiches—including a biscuit-wrapped hot dog and fried chicken in a biscuit—and the biscuits are also sold by the bucket with whipped honey butter and seasonal fruit compote. He’s planning to feature more blue-plate specials such as a biscuit-topped chicken pot pie, and the shop also offers strawberry shortcakes, pies, cakes, and cobblers." - Candice Woo
