Restaurant at Parkwood/Addison has a backer

Jason has more information on his blog. A real restaurant person — Jen Rawlings — is behind the concept, which will feature outdoor seating and food along the lines of what’s served at 821 and/or Ipanema, Jason adds.

Editorial comment ahead: We would really like to see this work out, because it would finally give us a spot that’s within reasonable walking distance. But the city’s response bears watching given the location tight in a residential area on a side street. I know we have a few readers over in that neck of the woods — what are your thoughts? Thanks, Jason, for the update.
