Did you call Kabir?

[VicHockeyFan]

No calls were made.  Will be interesting to see what comes here.

[gumgum]

I don't know where this is. Address?

[VicHockeyFan]

Between Fiamo and Reef, lower Yates.  

 

It was Podium Sports Grill (all-ages restaurant, run by same guys as Gorge Point Pub) for 5 years until their lease ran out.

Maison Belge Belgian Waffles and Sandwiches is in Vancouver and it is supposed to be amazing. 

 
Haven't tried one yet - but will!  Go to the flickr page to clearly view the menu from the original.  I guess they share the seating with the umbrella covered Starbucks area.

We are now picking up some internet chatter indicating it's the building owner's son that will operate it as a restaurant.

If that is the case, that seems strange they would use a broker - pay commission, time etc. 

[VicHockeyFan]

Maybe they gave up trying to find a tenant.

Is the building still owned by the old Periklis partners?

[zoomer]

I actually talked to some guy about four weeks ago who was locking up as he left the old Podium.  I asked him what is was going to be, and I got the strangest response ever..  Basically it was going to be a breakfast/lunch type place.  So, I said not open for dinner?  He said oh yah, dinner too, and they also want to make it a late night place for people in the industry to hang out after they're done.  So.. maybe they just never close then    I left none the wiser - maybe that was his plan.

What can you make of this?

Having been to Lucky Village in the past, it isn't bad food. Also, if downtown is dying ilke some say, why would you be trying to pull people out of it? Shouldn't they have already left?
