People everywhere love chains. It's why they are so successful.

Chicks changes over to Stripes next month. Stripes is going to heavily expand the same concept as Chicks. They will be building a lot more of the big box convenience store/gas station.

Was just at Chicks. 4-5 people in Stipes shirts pouring over reports.

^ Chick's original plan was to expand with more stores also.

One of the guys with Stripes told me that they really liked the way Chicks was operated. He loved the food especially the hamburgers. The management of Chicks is still going run the store from what I have been told. Why change what is working just fine? They said they were going add stuff, not subtract. Maybe buying Chicks was a way of getting their foot in the door.

I think I posted about this.

Word is (and the sign on front supports this with ownership) that it will be a dual level sushi/Asian food place that at night is a bar/club.

I forget which sushi place is opening it (atami maybe?).

Kreuz Market is going before Site Development in Bryan next week. They are going to build next to IHOP in Bryan. The restaurant will be 7,500 square feet.

It sounds good, but how is it any different from Kyoto around the corner? Also a sushi place that turns into a bar at night.

Looking forward to finally having a reason to go to Restaurant Row North. And a legendary one at that.

Fargo's, Martin's, and now Kreuz...big win for the Bryan BBQ circuit.

thanks for updating the first page. Can you consider putting a date beside an updated entry so the changes can be easily seen?

Ann Taylor LOFT would be amazing! I hope this happens. If you're a professional female in this town, finding clothes is nearly impossible unless you go to Austin or Houston or shop online.

Noticed land getting cleared on FM 158 next to Christophers. Any idea what's going on there?

I looked on the Bryan Development site back through January and didn't see anything next to Christophers. Closest I saw was across from and down toward Copperfield Dr. and 158.

carpe, I couldn't find out anything on the P&Z site. I know Christopher's sure could use a bigger parking lot. On weekends, the cars are lined up on the street across from them.

I have on good authority that Commerce National Bank has purchased the lease to go in where the First Victoria branch in the Tejas Center at Texas & Villa Maria. This will mean they will close their temporary location at 29th Street & Broadmoor.

According to the "King" of Yelp Greg D, a Mexican restaurant named "El Farouto" opened on Booneville Road. I recall seeing a sign go up with the actual spelling being El Farolito.

As long as we're correcting spelling, it's "Boonville".
