St. Nick Combo

December 2006

The 2006 holiday season brings the return of the St. Nick Combo to participating Rubio's locations throughout San Diego County. This meal of one Cheese Enchilada, one World Famous Fish Taco^SM, beans, rice, chips and a drink does more than taste great - for every St. Nick Combo ordered, Rubio's contributes a dollar in support of Volunteer San Diego's A Visit From St. Nicholas program which provides backpacks, toys and books to local schoolchildren.

Celebrating February with Heart
