"Pioneer Square D&E (short for “drink and eats”), which was known for having some of the best fried chicken in town, closed on December 2 after five years in business. In the Facebook announcement of the closure, owner Jonathan Fleming wrote, “In another five years, I wonder what we’ll be saying about the pandemic, the staffing challenges, inflation, and all the other growth opportunities we’ve faced since opening.”" - Meg van Huygen
