Since I started food blogging in late 2012, I’ve noticed numerous restaurants and cafes close down. Some I figured that it wouldn’t be too long till they did, but others, I was quite surprised or disappointed since I liked them and was hoping to return.
Here’s the list: (updated periodically – let me know if you have one or more to add!)
