That I do not know. My information didn't say anything about that, but maybe there was and it's gone now. There is one currently in Windsor, but one fellow was recently awarded the master franchise for Canada and is about to start building.

It must have closed at WEM some time ago; I remember it being there 15 years ago... They make good burgers, but it's a crowded burger market these days...

You mean the old KoKo Boutique? That's a nice location for a eatery, which of course it was when it used to be the Pure Health Lounge - I miss their bagels & lox.

Hopefully somewhere in the new wing and not the Food Court.

OK, the "new-ish" wing where Shopper's, Sport Check and Marshalls are located. Lots of space still available .

Hillside just expanded and remodeled as well. There is a desolate hallway to Marshalls and from Marshalls to Shoppers.

At Hillside wouldn't they need exterior frontage or otherwise need to be very close to an entrance? I assume that means they're going into the new section?

Or maybe not. I see that quite a few of their locations have mall hours and close early.
