I've heard that's not final. And their ridiculous fundraising fell flat.

Yes, they aren't going into Scarth St.

Also? GoFundMe for Artful Dodger? Really? If you're looking for donations to your for-profit business, the only way I'm tossing money your way is if I get a proportional ownership stake. If they were a non-profit, it's a different story (thought, I still think the request is a long-shot).

Olive Garden is apparently going in Grasslands but they'll be building a standalone site. The Brown's space is about half the size they need.

Yay! We finally have a nearly mediocre pasta place in Regina!

I know why you might say that, but everything I've heard is they're looking to expand.

Tony Roma's and The Nest. Somebody will probably come along and develop the site into another small commercial development.

The Press Box may be the next to go. Their rent is being increased and the current owners are strongly considering selling or even moving to the old Famoso location on Rochdale. I honestly don’t see either happening.

PressBox is currently listed for sale. I am surprised how long that place has been open. It's been moldy and smelly in there since they first opened, and the location is terrible.

It has nothing to do with their rent going up. They just aren't making money.

It burnt down about 10 years ago and took the whole mall with it.

I think you're right but the name Da Lat by Nite doesn't ring a bell so I wonder if that with a new owner but same cuisine. Do you recall if there a computer store in that same mall?

I think it was called something before it was called Da Lat but I can't remember that far back.

The computer store? Yeah I used to go there to buy Windows 3.1 based games. I forget what it was called... Computex or Innotex or some 1980's type computer store name.

Dale MacKay’s restaurant in the old Malt City will be called Avenue. They had their first pop up in the space a little while ago and it sounds like it was a hit. I believe there are two more scheduled before the official opening this summer.
