An Exciting New Chapter
FOR ALMOST NINE decades, our brand has revolved around a single question: Where? For visitors arriving to hotels in San Diego, we’ve long served as a resource to help answer that question, offering curated recommendations on where to dine, where to explore, where to play, where to shop, where to relax, where to indulge. The name Where has served us well, but after nearly 90 years, it was time for a brand refresh, and a change. As of this summer issue, WHERE Traveler San Diego Magazine has a new name: ARRIVED San Diego Magazine. Why? The former was a question; the latter answers it. ARRIVED is a statement, an announcement. To have arrived means you’re at last here, in San Diego, ready for some fun and adventure. ARRIVED better reflects who we are and what we do. And we are so excited that you’ve ARRIVED. And not to worry; we’re still the same company with the same ownership and team, the same focus and same content—though you will notice we’ve refreshed the look of our pages a bit. Onto what’s inside our pages, this issue is an ode to summertime in San Diego. Our main feature, Beachside Brunchin’ (p. 10), takes you on a coastal culinary tour from south to north—highlighting alfresco restaurants offering exceptional brunch menus with a side of sea views. We also spotlight some of San Diego’s bigger happenings of the season, including Comic-Con, the Del Mar Races, and San Diego Symphony’s summer concert season at The Rady Shell. In local dining news, the minds behind Azuki Sushi in Bankers Hill have opened an intimate, immersive Japanese dining experience, Kinme Omakase, located just up the street. Enjoy exploring San Diego this summer. Now that you’ve arrived, we sincerely hope that you thrive.
