Yesterday afternoon, I got a tip via The Ogle Mole Network asking if I was aware that the new Souper Salad on N. May Ave. was built backwards and, as a result, wasn’t going to open anytime soon.
I was a bit confused.
The last Souper Salad in the Metro closed over a decade ago, and if any local food chain was going to accidentally build a location backwards, I figured it would be Braum’s. Nevertheless, as a guy who likes to write about the hysterical failures and screw-ups of local businesses, I was intrigued:
“Tell me more!” I said.
The Ogle Mole then forwarded me a pic of the new Salad and Go – not Souper Salad – that’s been under construction for what seems like forever near NW 63rd and May, nestled between Red Carpet Car Wash and Cousin’s.
At that point, I got really interested.
