Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 located in SF Chinatown, the restaurant has a phone number on door for folks who need more info sorry, I didn't write down the number nor do I have more info If I have more info, I'll post to this list. == The former location of Lotus Garden, on Grant AVe is still empty for over 5 years. I heard that owner of the building is a rich person that doesn't need the rental income. Restaurant owners don't want to rent the space because the staircase breaks up the dining room in 2 sections. It's not business wise to have a space that is not able to accommodate large parties. So there that scoop. I was hoping Lotus Garden will open again. I had always wonder why no one took over the business/space. I have to admit, the menu prices are tourist prices, but the food was very pure and decent. == Medicine is doing so so. Whenever I pass by there, I count the number of employees that usually work there. (10+) I never met the main chef but he was in SF for a month, and now he's back to Japan to take care of his other restaurant. There's lots of financial investment in Medicine restaurant and I hope it will do well. Too bad my big American appetite is not used to the smaller Japanese portions. Another thing that bugs me about the restaurant is, their take-out Bento Box of the Day has been the same since day one. The 7X7 magazine and VegNews had great articles on the restaurant. 7X7 also reviewed Feel Real Restaurant-SF. support your local veg restaurant or they will disappear~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
