I bet you 5 to 1, another ramen/some asian fusion restaurant, or 2 to 1 a froyo/dessert shop will over take that place. 1 to 3 odds, on anything else.

[I'm not a gambling man; I'm pulling those odds out of my a**]

I live right there. Tried Sympathy once, but I offended them when I asked for Splenda instead of that Stevia crap...

Gosh, I sure hope we get another Ramen place!

I never went in because I remembered (and loved) this location from when it was the Rivendell Bookshop, run by my dear late friend Eileen Campbell Gordon and specializing in Celtic, Arthurian and fantasy books, old and new.

Eileen had a book party there for my first book, after she'd been rent-increased out of her two previous locations, the first on the north side of 7th Street just west of 2nd and the other next door to My Little Village Postal on 1st (now a newsstand, formerly a tailor shop).

It was a lovely place to hang out, and many authors came to visit and chat with Eileen. Sadly, she died in 1989, right after she'd been forced to close the shop and do mail-order...so I guess turnabout is fair play.
