Wagamama Coming To Philly?

WagamamaThe Philadelphia Business Journal is reporting (behind, alas, a pay wall) that beloved UK noodle chain Wagamama may possibly be searching out a University City location through the Michael Salove Company. Over at Blogalicious, Adam Erace has more information:

In an article detailing the rise of University City’s attractiveness to retailers, Larry Steinberg of Michael Salove Company (the big orange signs you see all around town) says that the UK-based noodle bar are scouting for a University City loc. Well, he doesn’t say that exactly, but if we think it hard enough perhaps it will happen.

We wrote about the glories of Wagamama (check out their Boston menu here) over at our last job. Let's just say that if yasai katsu curry makes it to Philadelphia, we'll be pretty damn happy.

oooh I am so happy!! When I lived in London (briefly, years ago) I sought out each of the six (I think) locations there.

And I still talk about Wagamama to this day.

Sigh :)
