General Food, Dining and Nightlife News

I think that would be a pretty terrible relocation. The site is zoned mixed-use so I can imagine that someone could be consolidating property for a large development there.

I've never seen anything to suggest that the mall is going anywhere.  I suspect any redevelopment would be many years in the future.

I meant Nougat's existing site as a redevelopment possibility - it's part of the Queen Street South mixed use corridor.

I've noticed that there are more sidewalk Terrassen  this year on King St than in the past, but that they don't seem to be very busy, although I've not been down enough in the evening to know how Berlin and Rhapsody are doing with their new outdoor spaces.  Off-street locations like Crabby Joes and Bobby O'Briens don't seem to have any problem and I've seen reasonable numbers of people some days outside Gilt.  Can a patio set up along the sidewalk in Downtown King St become a place where crowds want to gather to dine al fresco in the good weather?

Shhh, it's reapportioning more of the space on King Street for people. That said, I've been surprised by some of the spots which have put up patios, but then been equally surprised that yes, people do sit on the patio at Fat Bastard Burritos or at Union Burger. The patio at B at the museum seems to do well, as do the ones at 271 West and Matter of Taste.
