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."
