LA Beat blog recently compiled a list of the city's oldest and most historic surviving restaurants, and longtime SRC customer El Cholo makes the list at number 13 (lucky 13, to us!).
Shambra Restaurant Consulting has provided design, purchasing and installation services to all of El Cholo's current locations including their newest spot in Corona del Mar. Originally starting with Sonora Cafe in 1923, Sonora was renamed "El Cholo" in 1925 and the downtown Western location soon followed in 1927. The El Cholo family of restaurants now comprises six namesake restaurants across Los Angeles and Orange County, as well as The Cannery Newport Beach and The Cat and the Custard Cup in La Habra.
Congrats to El Cholo and their longstanding history of authentic Mexican fare in Los Angeles! Salud!

Orange County will soon be dining on sushi when Innovative Dining Group opens its first Sushi Roku there this summer. Shambra Restaurant Consulting was pleased to help IDG transform the former French restaurant into the OC's newest and tastiest sushi spot.
Working within the existing footprint, SRC transformed the existing kitchen to better serve the Sushi Roku concept. The kitchen cook line was reconfigured, as was the existing full-service bar. SRC also added a new sushi bar which features 30 feet of sushi display.

We'd like to thanks IDG once again for selecting Shambra Restaurant Consulting as their food service consultant. Best of luck!
