I'm not saying they shouldn't pay, but it's a business transaction. I wish there was a state agency that would force some of my deadbeat customers to pay up. But maybe this has something to do with something else more sinister... |

Another casualty - the Riviera Maya on Loop 410, which opened about a year ago, now has a for sale/lease sign out front.

Gone for good. The building has a sign up saying it's for sale or lease.

Took a walk over to what used to be Luca (at the bottom of the Fairmont Hotel). It's now Signature, and is owned by the same company that runs Bin 555 (among others). May try it out for lunch today...

According to
Food Flashes
It's called Insignia, not Signature. |
