Lesley==Sorry, Rick? Who is that? What is the actual name of the restaurant? Do you mean it's in the same shopping center as Mark's Place, or just close?

Hi Carol,
The name of the restaurant is Rick and the Chef Owner name is Rick and they are originally from Hong Kong and lived in Las Vegas before coming to the Island.
Very good food . Same shopping area and closer to Burger King side.

At first I thought he was talking about the original "Rick's place" that use to be by the marina bridge in Simpson bay! That was a cool place!!

Actually, the original Ric's Place was just off of Olde St. in the early 1990's. We were in the original location once when visiting off a cruise and many times at the other locations. They then moved to Front St. and then to Simpson Bay near the bridge before selling the restaurant. It changed hands a couple of times; it was a BBQ restaurant that the owners eventually ran into the ground.

Ric has since passed and I still stay in touch with Kathy, she resides in NC now.

This is a totally different place.

I lived 30 years in Las Vegas. Do you know if he had a restaurant there and if so, do you know the name of it?
