"When Purple Mint’s owners announced a developer was turning their strip mall into condos, the outpouring of love from fans was palpable. Despite the challenge, their perseverance led them to a new home on El Cajon Boulevard in City Heights. While the space may be more modest, the essence of their pan-Asian menu remains unchanged. Beloved dishes like the sizzling “filet mignon” served in a cast iron pan and the iconic Double Delight Rolls — crispy egg-less rolls with fresh vegetables wrapped in delicate rice paper — continue to satisfy." - Kelly Bone
