I might have missed it if mentioned but what is going on at the corner of Navarro and wellborn? Dirt work being done in front of those old storage units.

It was announced at the Chamber event today that Gringo's got all permits approved and will break ground next month.

Greasy Tex-Mex are all pretty interchangeable.

Casa Ole sucks. Gringos is a tier above Chuys and a tier below Papasitos

I have never had Gringos, but I can't imagine it not being significantly better than Caso Ole. Casa Ole was basically an El Charrito frozen dinner at twice the price.

Attempting to get back on track, if construction on Gringos begins in February, what it is the likely time frame for opening?

Went there last weekend... Still a sign on the door that says 11am to 4 pm Thursday to Saturday.

The place was busy... about 90% full Sat at 2:30ish.

I think the hours are limited while they are trying to build a staff.

And not even on the same scale with quite a few local places. I can't think of a more appropriately named restaurant.

What is the other new building going in near Casa do Brasil? Very near the new Brazilian steakhouse, there is another building under construction -- a bit south of the steakhouse. What is it?

How about that Pappadeaux? Any word?

Drove to Houston last weekend to get my Pappadeaux fix. I've given up on us getting one here. It would probably be an hour-long wait anyway, so I'll just keep going to the Woodlands.

Saw that OMG Seafood is going to have a soft opening tomorrow starting at 3 pm. They are located on Texas Ave. south of the Whataburger in Bryan. Going have to try it this weekend.

I believe it's an Asian Market and Grocery. I forget the name. There is signage up in front on Old Arrington.

Family AutoCare Center is going in across from World Nail, next door to granite store.
Close to old location of Allen Olds in Bryan.

That might be the new Ground Shuttle. There's a big new nice building nearing completion on the road I thought was the Ground Shuttle, but there's no parking. I finally drove Old Arrington for the 1st time in years and there is a small building South of the steak house with a lot of parking. That's probably the Ground Shuttle spot. The building along Greens Prairie nearing completion is probably the Rehab place mentioned. The Asian Market spot is still bare dirt.

If it's the building I'm thinking about, it's right behind Caprock ER and Zaxbys. Lots of windows. No idea on that one.

The autcare place looks to be directly behind Discount Tire.

South of that is a small building with a big parking lot. That's prolly the Ground Shuttle.
That larger one is probably the rehab place mentioned last year.

Edit: the place behind Discount Tire is the Collision repair place.

A rehab facility makes sense with all of those windows.

I wonder if they take all insurance like the free-standing ER nearby?

The rehab place is Inspire Physical Therapy. They are currently near Barron. They are building a bigger facility.

We popped in the Angry Elephant after the basketball game on Saturday. There was a good crowd when we got there and it was steadily filling up as the afternoon went on. The bartender told us they will be adding a porch out front. I expect to be a regular, great place! If we had not just had lunch I would have tried one of the hot dogs but that will happen next time we go.


I, too, popped into the Angry Elephant after the basketball game and sat at the bar.

Well then you weren't the guy sitting next to me! There were two couples (looked like old Ags) when you first walked in, then my wife and I, then birthday boy & his buddy...I guess you were farther down. I never ventured to those parts of yonder bar. Maybe we'll catch each other next time!
