Midweek Meanderings: Goodbye Seoul BBQ and Paris Baguette coming soon

Just a short post for this post-election Wednesday.

Goodbye Seoul BBQ, hello Roadem BBQ:

I'm thinking the writing had been on the wall for a while at Seoul BBQ. I drove by the other day and saw this sign.

Am I the only one who thinks this name is a bit too close to "roadkill"? The kiss of death for Seoul was when I saw they were doing AYCE Korean BBQ, basically trying to compete with Manna. So now it's being replaced by another AYCE joint? For some reason the line, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" came to mind. you know the song, right? Won't get fooled again……..

Paris Baguette:

Driving past the location for the upcoming H Mart, I saw the sign for Paris Baguette posted.

For those who haven't heard of them, this is a chain of Korean-French Bakeries that are sometimes in Supermarkets. From what I heard, there are going to be two of them. One in this H Mart location and one in the new location of Zion Market. I guess they're covering all bases, huh?
