A rather long read but rather interesting to see what might go into trying to start a business and how the local game is played. Lots of back and forth in the article.

According to Google Maps, it is between Le Sucriere and Dominos Pizza, which is in that little plaza where Peg Leg Pub used to be. Kind of across from Cappuccino Diner, they are on the lagoon. THere was a lot of land clearing going on there last March.

OK, thanks. I hadn't heard anything about it, until these stories in the Daily Herald.

we checked it out in december...an open-air collection of several small booth-type places selling a variety of different casual foods (burgers, gyros, pizza, etc) with a cocktail bar in the middle, as well as hookah bar and a DJ playing music...no real formal restaurant, except there is an italian restaurant near the entrance, which i guess may be part of it...younger crowd, mostly groups of 20s-early 30s partyers
