Amate gone

This cute little Mexican restaurant closed for renovations, reopened, and then finally closed for good. In its place, a new sushi restaurant called Sushi Umi. Stay tuned…

Four Cuisines Bistro closed

Number out of service has a gloomy ring. I’ll drive by later today to confirm, but preliminary forays reveal this eclectic little restaurant with the remarkably kind prices has closed. 

Whalesbone Oyster House

Bear in mind, as you read the review of the Whalesbone in CD on page 190, that chef Steve Vardy is no longer in charge.  Vardy moved to Newfoundland in 2007 (though has returned to open the latest installment of the Black Cat Cafe, on Preston Street – stay tuned).  Vardy’s young sous chef at Whalesbone, Steve Wall, is in charge of the fish now, and you will find a report on Wall at Whalesbone under the Review category of this site.
