not my Coffee Table!
I found out last night that my beloved Coffee Table is closing, because someone has bought the building. Apparently the building may be torn down and replaced with condos. Gah! A few years back some other company had planned to build condos there but reopen the Coffee Table after construction, but that deal fell through.
It's a very personal loss to me. The place is a block away from where I live. I've spent countless hours there with friends over the years. I've picked up countless breakfasts and lunches and dinners and coffees for myself. It's my Beloved Neighborhood Place.
I was already planning on having lunch with a friend there this weekend before I heard the news. I suspect I will spend a lot of time there between now and when it shuts down on September 12th.
The other Coffee Table restaurant, in nearby Eagle Rock, will still be open, and I will go there from time to time, but it won't be the same.
