OTV: Ex-Henry’s Owner Returning

New restaurant scoop! Local eyes are moist with joy, or at least mine are, with the news that former Henry's owner/architect Joe Chapman is returning to the Coeur d'Alene restaurant scene soon when Grumpy's opens for business in the former Bambino's location in midtown Cd'A, which for aeons before that housed a cracked-out all-nite laundromat. If you know Joe at all, you'll know that Grumpy's is THE perfect name for his new culinary endeavor. As I've mentioned before, Joe was my first boss and an old family friend; I washed dishes there at age 15, and it was a default hang-out spot for several decades/OrangeTV. More Bread Crumbs & Tuna Chunks.
Question: How often do you dine at downtown and Midtown eateries?
