New Shawarma joint on Broad beside that vitamin store.  It's the old Eugene's spot.  I wanna say Turkish....

Cora is reopening end of April, hiring now. I don’t know if it’s new management or not.

Quazar’s Arcade will be expanding to a 5700 sq ft licensed space on lower Yates this summer, details to follow I am sure! I wonder where this space is?


Could that be the former Cap Daily offices across from Fiamo?

I wondered if it was maybe the VR place. The space was described as having high ceilings and exposed brick.

Anyways, a licensed video arcade will do gangbusters.

I stopped playing arcade games when I was 18.

No kidding.

 

You should try out Quazars, they do a good job of it.

Quazar’s is a blast. They’ve also had about 15 machines at the Hudson Public Market for the last six months or so - great way to have some fun and kill some time over lunch break.

It appears that a Brazilian eatery will be opening on Yates next to the Brickard Pizzeria in the space recently occupied by a taco restaurant. The new eatery will be called Brazuca.
