An institution on Canal Street and the New Orleans dining scene, going back to 1991 , @palacecafenola has closed....at least for now.
Nearing the end of a 35-year lease, with an option to buy, its operators say they were negotiating to to just that. A dispute over its value landed in court, and after a judge ruled for the property owners, the restaurant people say the numbers don’t add up to stay open.
But Dickie Brennan says: “Don’t count us out yet.”
Pending an appeal, Palace Café reopening at its original location is a possibility, and the operators are also “interested in reimagining and reopening Palace Café” elsewhere should the right location arise.
Link in my bio has the story with more detail and photos of Palace Cafe through the years and today at its closing by @davidgrunfeld (couple here showing the grand old place…and that crabmeat cheesecake)
