15 San Diego icons including Jason Mraz, Claudia Sandoval, Todd Gloria, Rob Machado, and Chad Michaels share their favorite eats and drinks from the city.
“We are taking a big hit,” says Abner Figueroa, co-owner of Coal Bros Taqueria downtown. “But we believe that this is the path that is going to end this pandemic the fastest.”
Because COVID-19 public health orders restrict restaurants to takeout and delivery, sales are down by more than 50%, Figueroa said. Still, = he believes obeying the rules during this unprecedented deadly pandemic is a matter of conscience.
“It just feels morally right,” Figueroa said.
