    Crowded by the “form over substance” part of the Heights population.

    I walked by Chez Moi on Atlantic the other day and noticed a sign that said they were closed for a private event. I could see something behind the sign, and when I peeled it away, there was a yellow Department of Health sign saying they were closed. (And saying that it is a violation of the law to cover the sign.) Have to say that I find myself pretty angry at the deception. It is one thing to have a bad inspection — stuff happens sometimes with kitchens — but it is far worse to try and cover it up. They won’t be getting my business anymore.

    Ugh. And I just ate there today for the first time in 6 months or a year. No food poisoning but the food was surprisingly mediocre.

  • Andrew Porter

    Interesting. Turned them in to 3-1-1.

  • Jeffrey Smith

    1000% correct. You just a robotized element trooping into a place like that, reacting to the look or the “buzz”. We used to call them “trendziods”” in the mid 70’s or eighties. Ugh!

    ugh. this is a huge bummer. they got 9 critical violations at Thursday’s inspection, and 1 non-critical. 79 total violation points… ick. and whoever had the bright idea to cover the sign probably screwed them completely.

    Do we get the anchor back?

    Yeah but no loss there.

    Not if another restaurant goes there.

    Andrew – do you know if this is the view from Clinton Street, or rom what is now Cadman Plaza?

  • Andrew Porter

    It’s along Clinton Street, facing northeast.

    Thanks! I pass by here daily – interesting to know there was another (relatively) tall building here before the current behemoth under construction.
    So – the library was historically just a brief interlude of clear sky
