Azure Closes

Over at Food & Drinq, Michael Klein just let us know that longstanding Northern Liberties restaurant Azure closed on Monday night. Here's what the good man had to say:

"Talk on the street is that owner Bob Bitros has retired and will lease out the room to a royally well-known pub team. I'm also hearing whispers of a Mexican theme, which should be interesting given Owen Kamihira's plan to revive Deuce up the street as a Tex-Mex called El Camino Real."

And by "royally," did he mean these guys? Could well be.
