I can hardly wait,  The Habit Burger Grill will open its second Orange County location and the 29th in its chain in the University Plaza complex ,that is currently under construction, across from Cal State Fullerton.  The Habit, which will move into a 1,700-square-foot space, began as a hamburger stand in 1969 in the beach community of Goleta, near UC Santa Barbara. The signature menu item remains the Charburger with caramelized onions

The one-story, four-tenant building on Nutwood Avenue replaces the Indian restaurant that burned down several years ago. Young Lee, president of Costa Mesa-based Flame Broiler, said he has also signed a lease for a 1,200-square-foot space in the building next to the Cantina Lounge.  Lee launched his Flame Broiler chain in 1995 at Chapman and Raymond avenues in Fullerton. Commuting after graduation from UCLA, he often looked for quick bites to eat, but had a difficult time finding a healthy alternative to fast food.

Russ Khouri, vice president of Investment Concepts Inc., of Orange - which owns the property - said Thursday he is looking for two additional restaurant tenants. Occupancy is slated the first part of 2010.
