Correction on Birdland

I was wrong, wrong, wrong. I had some bad intelligence on this one (and the name "Birdland: Four Sisters Cuisine sounds like a Thai place...doesn't it?) But, no, this is a soul food restaurant. They will serve southern food straight out of the Carolinas, or as the sign puts it "North Carlina" (their misspelling, not mine). Apparently the Ohio restaurant is going to have a little competition. Birdland will serve (among other items) ribs, fried chicken & iced (sweet I presume) tea. I still think it will be a sit down place, but it's hard to tell since they are still doing so much work on the inside. Sorry about the Thai thing, but it would nice, no?

Any sitdown restaurant would be welcome. It looks like the Ohio restaurant building is up for sale anyway.

Oh really? I hadn't noticed. Has anyone been to the Ohio? I looked in one day when the door was open & it looked like a decent hole in the wall place.

I would think that the Ohio might replaced a fair amount of their stuff not long ago because they suffered a few years back (but then that could just mean that they covered-up the damage without really fixing it).

I thought Birdland seemed an unusual name for an Asian restaurant. I wouldn't mind a nice sit down place though.

It was the "Four Sisters Cuisine" & the bad info that threw me off. I think Birdland Four Sisters Cuisine sounds like an odd name for a southern restaurant. But yeah, if it's a sit down place, bring it on.
