    1. The mortality rate for food businesses is high. Nando’s is probably the biggest under-performer there, given how hugely popular it is overseas.

    2. Seeing my fellow country men also continuing the time honoured tradition of not liking Taco Bell does give me some hope for humanity.

      Add lidos Italia in manly. Little family owned joint that my partner and I have loved for years. They’re shutting down due to the ridiculous rent hike in the building they’ve been in for the past 16 years.

      They’re open until the 13th so please drop in if you get the chance.

      No way Nando’s Kenmore is gone!!! That was there all through my high school years and I’m 30 now lol

    5. I’d like to see a similar one for new places because I reckon 80% or more than a kitted out cafe or restaurant closes, one opens in its place. I reckon it’d be a very similar map.

      Ben’s Chinese Woolloongabba probably the biggest scalp here imo

      I’d say a lot of these places are opening in wrong areas….

      Wang Chung for example in Manly

      I had a look at the few near me that weren’t fast food and they are all unsurprising. Places served the worst food and took too long to make it. I’m talking 2 hour wait for takeout

      Golden Ox was where I had my school formal in 1988. Where do Redcliffe students go now for their fancy do?

      Nandos Kenmore has closed… but has one has also opened up in Indooroopilly. Not sure if they are the same owners.

    11. How’s the location work? As the Ceylon curry club that was in Graceville is half way to Ipswich?

      Feast at Springwood had a very strange business model. Unless you booked for certain meal times they would turn you away.
      Even at meal times like dinner.

      So I’m not surprised

      Zaza kebabs were delicious, shame the owner sold up. New owners are alright, the younger lady who serves can be cold as ice
