re: Old DeVos Grocery
http://www.myspace.com/artsonbeaconhill
There's a front page article about the new theater at the old grocery story in today's Beacon Hill News. I think this is kind of exciting!
There's a couple of other tidbits I've been meaning to pass along to you but keep forgetting when I'm here.
First, have you heard that El Quetzal is getting a liquor license? Woo hoo! Finally a beer to wash down my huaraches! Anyway, my neighbor (who seems to know quite a bit about what's going on in the neighborhood) said they're still probably a month away from getting it, but it's in the works nonetheless.
Also, you might have already noticed this, but the Soleil salon at Beacon and Hanford has closed. My same neighbor has already emailed the Pagliacci's, Spiro's, and Mad pizza joints asking them to look into moving into that space. I haven't remembered to ask her if she's heard back. I think I'm going to start bugging people about this space too. What would you like to see there?
Loretta's is wonderful. Seemingly inspired by the same era as King's in Ballard, but without all the foofoo girls and boys of Ballard.
Once the Airstream is set up in the back patio, Lorettas is going to be a GREAT summertime joint.
