Duke Street Food Block

[danbrotherston]

Good news and bad news today!

The bad news? Bread Heads is closing, permanently, as of December 21st (per a sign in the restaurant). Blaming it on the lack of parking directly in front of the restaurant "due to LRT". Uuuuhhhhhhhh, there's a gigantic parking garage literally across the street. I really doubt "the LRT took away 3 of our parking spots" is the reason for business loss.

The good news? Crafty Ramen is INDEED moving into the newly renovated space at King / Water! I remember someone posting that rumor here a few months ago, now seems to be official.

That's some BS sour grapes.  The *only* time I visited the Duke Food Block (because AFAIK most stores are only open during work hours, and I don't work downtown) I was running errands, and thus, I drove there, there's tons of parking around, I walked less than a block at 12:10 or so.  Most traffic is from businesses around, whose employees walk.
