Wallingford Envy

Jordan Jordan March 31, 2009 10 Comments

Hey Capitol Hill, we’re sorry if we made you feel bad about the whole Word of the Week thing. Look, if it will make you feel better, we’ll give you a couple restaurants:

  • Rancho Brava, one of the best taco trucks in the city, if not the state, has expanded from its first location in the Winchell’s parking lot to a new Capitol Hill location, in the old KFC lot across from Cal Anderson Park.
  • Molly Moon’s Ice Cream, one of the best ice cream shops in the city, if not the state, is opening its Capitol Hill location in the Oddfellow’s building across form Cal Anderson Park this Saturday Saturday, April 25th.

You’re welcome. No, thank you, that’s not necessary. We already have a Dick’s.

    Actually, Rancho Brava had a location in Kirkland at a gas station before it opened here. I used to work out that way and stopped in for lunch a few times a week. When they first opened it it was me and a handful of Mexicans eating there, after a few months word got out and it was packed. Then one day about a year later I showed up and it was gone, awning and everything. I ran into the gas station to ask what happened and the lady indicated they were evicted. They got so popular that people were parking in front of the gas pumps and the station was losing money. I was overjoyed when I saw them at Winchell’s but I live in fear every day that the same thing will happen.

    I noticed a gleaming new trailer in the Golden Oldies lot, does this have something to do w/ this? Or maybe they’re just upgrading – it does seem that someone’s doing well in this economy… maybe the secret is spicy pork burritos.
