If you could bring back ONE restaurant, store, or hangout that's

CatalinaD :
I think it got enough business here….just not in other parts of the country. Like Tuesday Morning and the Crown Bookstore, where Palais Royal was. We have lost businesses because they failed in other locations. IDK… maybe I am wrong, but this is my thought!!!

CatalinaD : I think the parent company had overwhelming debt problems that tanked the whole thing….independently, the KW may have been profitable on its own…

Joe : Yes, that's probably the case. I think I read that they were in financial trouble shortly before the closing. It did look like it was a popular store here in our area.

ceamommy :
Bennigan's for Ultimate Nachos;
Log Cabin with the Christmas tree up year round.

justanirishgirl : pre-flood Fuddruckers was great, after a rough restart, it seemed like they were back to former selves. But that didn't last. We gave them a lot of chances.

CoffeeandWine :
Agreed - Steinmart was terrific and also bring back Steak N Ale /Their food choices, the salad bar, the bar where you dine in there too for the quiet - lots of business was handled there and lots of families went there to celebrate events!

RaggedyAnn :
Oh my goodness, I was a little girl when our family used to go to the Log Cabin often to celebrate family get togethers. Loved the family style of serving, and I am a grown grandma now, but I still remember being about 8 or 9 and dining with family there. It was a very special place.

The Demitasse (sp?) tea room

ceamommy :
Jack in the Box. Sometimes I crave those greasy tacos or the breakfast sandwiches

The Demitasse and Cafe Dubois were both great as others have said. I am sorry they are no longer here. I ate at both places often. I can see the pretty lady who owned the Demitasse in my mind, but I can't remember her name.
I think we went to church together.

ceamommy :
Bennigan's

Livablefor41 :
OMG, My mom and I use to go there all the time for lunch, and you're right about the tea, it was great and I don't really like tea either!

UptownGirl :
I think it was called Zachary's Cajun Cafe

CatalinaD : Was Cliff's in the same strip center?

I miss the mooyah that was in town center
