Locale Chains
While it’s not always a smooth go for national restaurant chains in town, there has been a mini-boom in local chains/ expansion locations.
Mary Anne’s & BUtterfield8 are NYC transplants and Barcelona joins a long list of Connecticut locations. In Columbus Park, Market was a new addition from Match in SoNo and Layla’s Falafel is new location for owners with spots elsewhere in Stamford and in Fairfield.
Are we craving any new ventures from another locale entrepreneur?
I’m giving an open invite to Chef Jeff to bring his Southern BBQ to the CTW. Jeff’s Cuisine in SoNo is great, but slightly confined in its space. Come on Jeff, you don’t have to abandon SoNo, but an outpost in Stamford that is a combo restaurant/ club would be well received. The old Sabatiello’s location strikes me as a winner. 
Any other ideas?

would love to see cheesecake factory or its sister chain Grand Luxe cafe
Tho I might like an applebees or a TGI fridays, i doubt they would come here.
Stamford needs one of these. Love the one in New Canaan.

Anyone see this in the advocate. sounds interesting. they are moving to 211 main St, where Western Union currently sits.
No generic, salty, fried, overpriced national chains, please!! No Panera Bread, either.

Their cream puffs are ridiculously good.
Word on the creampuffs at beard papa. Occasionally fujimart (near exit 5 off 95) has a small shipment of beard papas brought in from the city, but not nearly enough to offer a steady supply to creampuff aficionados like myself.
I wish we had an Eggspectations
