[Downtown Raleigh retail updates]

While walking around last night, I noticed:

- I have no idea what it means, but there is a sign for the Remedy Diner in the former Roly Poly space on Hargett near Cafe Luna.

Here's a little more info about Remedy.

Yancy's may really be closed this time.

Looks like Yancy's has indeed closed shop now: http://www.newraleigh.com/articles/archive...ys-locks-doors/

Kinda sad to see it happen. Service wasn't the best, and the food was pricey, but it had a unique style and atmosphere that made it a good addition to the downtown Raleigh dining choices.

They are still open, for now. http://www.newsobserver.com/business/story/1129465.html

Try Nikos Taverna in Morrisville on Davis, get the cheese balls.

Apparently the relocated Greenshield's in Cary closed. They must be really kicking themselves for not sticking with the city market location and reinvesting in it after the fire. The N&O says they might be looking for a new location...and their old space is still empy .

I was a Greenshields fan, then they had the "fire". I just dont get it. They packed up their beautiful Salzburg copper kettles, put them in storage, and opened a restaurant in a barely functional shopping center in Cary where Chico's had just folded up after just a couple years. The new restaurant was bright and obnoxious, food was overpriced, and had NO MICROBREW! Frankly I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did without a website.
