From pop-up disaster to 100+ locations, ‘Ike’s’ still serves something special
When I first met Ike Shehadeh in November 2012, out front his undersized, bustling storefront wedged between Mission Dolores and the Castro, I spoke with a young entrepreneur bubbling with ambition, drive, and, much like his sandwiches, something else. Something special. Ike’s signature flavor profiles and cheekily suggestive sandwich names...
