"Spurred by the success of her Point Loma juice bar on Rosecrans Street, chef/owner Pamela Olvera is bringing Northside Shack to North Park, where the quick-service eatery should debut by mid-November as part of 30th Street’s North Park Square at North Park Way. The North Park shop, slightly bigger than the original Point Loma location, will feature some outside seating and extended hours until 7 p.m. Its menu is built on build-your-own or customized fresh-press juice blends and smoothies made with organic produce from local stores, including People’s Market in Ocean Beach; there will also be local kombucha and healthy bowls piled high with fruit and other toppings based on organic acai, organic pitaya (dragon fruit), or organic oatmeal. The North Park outpost will offer a new probiotic bowl with kefir, plus other grab-and-go food items, and Olvera says she is considering expanding the family-run business to neighborhoods like Oceanside, La Mesa, National City, and Eastlake." - Candice Woo
