Earlier this week, we were first on the scene, first on the story, in reporting that Ingrid's Kitchen – the venerable Oklahoma City Bavarian eatery and bakery that was once featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives – was shut down by the Oklahoma Tax Commission for failure to pay at least $125,000 in back sales taxes.
The news quickly shot through the Oklahoma City food scene like the smell of Ingrid's dinner rolls being brought to the table, leaving thousands and thousands of Oklahomans with thumbprint cookie-sized holes in their heart, wondering if, when, or how the wound will ever heal.
Well, I guess we have good news to report!
