Man, that's disappointing. It was a great spot. They had some surprisingly good food and entertainment. I've seen Max Stalling, Jason Boland, and Bart Crow there in the last few years.

What is going in on W.D. Fitch at Barron Road intersection (south side)? Dirt work next door to the new Justice of the Peace offices.

Not Cool. Koppe Bridge on Welborn is listed by OG as a ground lease redevelopment. I was hoping that building and Koppe Bridge would stay that way it is indefinitely.

For a long time it was my favorite burger joint in town. Then they made some changes and it went down hill fast. We tried to give it multiple chances, but wound up going to better places. I haven't been in years.
Sad to see another local place go under.

Edit to add - Whataburger is a case study in changes that haven't worked, since being bought out.

Not Closed! They're just marketing to redevelop the land that its on. It could be years but things seem to be set in motion

Someone needs to buy out that property behind them if they want to do anything sizeable.

We drove b y yesterday and the sign says they will be "Business" Condos. I'm not sure what that means.

Imperial Chinese posted today that there's some cars and activity next door to them at the former Hooter's.

Did Hooters close?
Yeah, they had a big round of closures a few months ago (40 locations nationwide) and the Bryan one was one of the ones axed.

I heard from someone recently that Brauhaus is slated to close.
Has anyone heard something similar?

It would be a real shame

It better not! My favorite place in downtown!

For those who have never made it, it is 100% worth it. And they have really good (cheap) kids meals, or for our really picky eaters, a side of fries or spaetzle is only like $2

By the way, Krispy Kreme's sales tax record is now listed as inactive even though it hasn't been cancelled by the state yet.

I'm pretty sure it will have commercial office space, similar to the one directly across 40 where Urban Table is located. Now I see they are clearing some land on the southeast of that intersection. Not sure what's happening there.

The Dean is open at the Hilton and boy it looks nice. They had me at a cocktail named for the author of Frankenstein.

Any ideas on prices? I'm sure it isn't cheap but it is a bit annoying their menu omits prices.

They spelled Hemingway and Fleming wrong.

I was wondering if that was an intentional misspelling...some sort of inside cryptic reference.

Also, Mary Shelley and Memoirs of a Geisha (should be no possessive in Memoir's)

"Memoir's" of a Geisha…..

Menu doesn't seem very scholarly. Maybe scholarly for Booger County?

The new shipwreck is open


Approach from the west if you want to be able to get there.
Or if you approach from the east, take a left on Cavitt at the light, take your first right on Elm and it will be a block west on your right. You can pull into the parking lot. Super easy, if you plan.

If only that had been communicated to the customers of Amico Nave.

I always loved the fact that you could go from Carneys directly to Amico Nave via the quasi secret back route.

Casa Mangiare tonight was pretty good. Comped my wine for being a little late and then gave us a free dessert for a birthday.

I'm confused on the Cochon and Napa Flats. The 2 are owned by separate people aren't they? Or wad Cochon always a partnership with Napa people and is only now getting a new branding?

Both are owned by the individual that owns Napa Flats. There was some collaboration on the french concept with the chef/owner of 1860.

Stopped in and talked to these nice people this morning after grabbing tacos La Familia in the 3160 Market.

Trackside hopes to be open by the 1st.

Their old location on Koppe Bridge is closed. Heat Ups has taken that location. I haven't seen anything about Heat Ups. Had no idea they were open and haven't seen any promotions or ads.

Anybody tried Heat Ups?

I'd also like an update on Heat Ups - their website needs a bit of explanation on what they are actually doing - ? Frozen meals? Or Fresh? May try it just for ease! Ie hard to cook for just 2! And not spend hours in the kitchen!
