I started a new thread with this just to make sure people would see it cause' it's that important.........this may sound like a broken record, and we've all been led down this primrose path before, most recently by kahiki but....

I went trader vics tonight and was astonished but not entirely suprised to find out that they are looking to re-open a new trader vics in chicago next year. a source told me that they are actively looking for a new site and should have one nailed down by feb. of next year.....though this is good news, it still means the end of the original location in the palmer house, of which the bulk of the decor will be salvaged but i'll bet if you go dumpster diving there in early january you will at least end up with some nice 6" dia. bamboo poles from the old ceiling as well as other wall coverings that in no way would be salvagable for a new location....again, I take this info with a truck load of sodium, but with the re-opening of the san fran vics and the scottsdale AZ. location, it seems completly plausible....I also know that because they have been still doing a really good business that it would justify opening a new place.....regardless, your last time at the palmer house trader vics will really be your last time, so enjoy it while you can and let's hope for the best as far as a new traders......
