I haven't done one of these in a while, so I thought I'd play some ketch….ahem, catch-up.
Mike's BBQ in Bay Park Closes:
Driving by this strip mall, I noticed that the sign for Mike's BBQ had been taken down.
So I pulled into the mall and noticed that the place had closed down! Looks like there were some complaints from residents in the nearby apartment complex. One morning I mentioned this to a couple of the old-timers at Clairemont Coffee and got some interesting stories. I believe an abatement order was filed and I guess the rest is history.
Though I wasn't super impressed by the food I thought the folks here were really nice and they filled a niche in the community.
Sad to see things turn out this way.

Tasty Pot:
Man, this strip mall has been busy lately with Baguette Bros, Green China Grill, and some Crawfish place recently opening. Looks like a hot pot place will soon be making its home here as well.
Thanks to FOY "Xiāng Jiāo" for the heads-up.

Boba Bar:
Ever wonder what was going on with the old Dumpling Inn spot. Looks like it's becoming a boba-shaved ice-ice cream shop.
Don't we have quite a few of these already?

Donburi Kitchen:
FOY "Sandy" mentioned this in the comments of one of my posts.
I had noticed it a few weeks back when I dropped by Island Style Café. Donburi, huh? I'm interested to see what this place, in the location that used to be The Fish Bucket is going to be like. They might even be open already, so I gotta check again soon.

So that's it for now. Hope you're having a great week!
