We’re in the midst of yet another road trip with JJ – so just a quick post on something I saw the other day. I went to see what was up with the Taste of Hong Kong space. Just last month it was something called Grill N Malatang? And then of course there was the IG post saying they were “taking a short break”.

But as I was driving by; I noticed some new “signage”.

It says “Dumpling Express”?

After a doing some searching, I found the business’s IG sight. Looks like they are opening soon?
So, I guess Grill N Malatang is on a longer “break” now? And what about that AYCE Sushi Bar named Shinjuku Station that is supposed to be in this spot? Well, the chain’s website still says that their San Diego location is opening at this address!

Man oh man…can’t wait to see what happens next!

Kokoro’s Last Day of Service is on August 30th:
Funny, I was just thinking about revisiting Kokoro when we get back into town and then this came up in my IG feed:

The owners are retiring. They’ll be missed. This place was also a favorite of the late Ed From Yuma! I hope they have a wonderful retirement!

Interesting. I’ll have to check out Dumpling Express.
Well, we’ll see what actually happens Soo!
bummer
Yes, Kokoro has been around for so long! They’ll be missed Kat!
Tadokoro announced that they are ending lunch service in October. Will shift to omakase only. No more a la carte.
Man, that’s disappointing Junichi! I need to visit at least once before the changes.
Maybe we should be using one of those online betting sites to place bets on what that place is going to be?😝
Lol Franklin! Good luck! ;o)
Such a bummer about Kokoro but good for them and their new adventure in retirement. I loved listening to the jazz they would play while enjoying my sushi.
Yeah, I’m going to miss them as well Jack! I hope they have a wonderful retirement!
