"Church Street restaurant Cook Shoppe, which closed in August when owners were caught serving alcohol without a license, won’t reopen. It’s not a huge surprise, as the business appeared to totally unravel: One owner was wanted in NY and is now in jail, the other was using an alias and has left town. Hoodline followed up with more details on the bizarre saga, learning of unpaid workers and contractors, and discovering a past chapter in which the owner using an alias also stiffed workers in LA while using a different identity. Needless to say, they also aren’t opening another place they had planned for the neighborhood." - Caleb Pershan
