By now, you should have noticed that we do these “Restaurant Roll Call” posts at every month's end. This month, though short, is no exception. We noticed more openings than closings this time. And those that closed, such as Tapioca Express and Bari Bari BBQ, are already being replaced by new restaurants ready to continue where the last one left off.
The list after the jump!
