Eat at Moe's is no more. Lets hope that Moe stays in the area and makes another run at the restaurant biz. I enjoyed the option of something different...

Moe is opening a new restaurant in MC called "Sahara". Located on Franklin Street, near Albano's, it should be opening soon.

That's too bad. While it was never my style, I know they had a loyal following.

Then again I think I read somewhere that 50% of restaurants fail in the first two years.

Yeah, but Moe's has been there longer than 2 years. My friend did all the remodeling work before he opened and that was about 4 years ago. so what happened? IMO it was his location.

Actually, he did pretty well in that location. It was the high overhead cost of that particular location (rent).

On WIMS, I heard the ad for Sahara, introducing "small-plate dining" to MC. This is like the restaurant MEZZA in Valpo that Moe was involved in--and may still be, for all I know. You order 4 or 5 cold items, 4 or 5 hot items, and they serve them to you sequentially. Very tasty.

Anyone eat at Sahara lately? Any notes or reviews?


By the way, Moe is getting ready to open a Mediterranean grocery store next door to Sahara.

I heard the same thing! Any idea of when? He also operates a cart at the Farmers' Market in MC every Saturday morning. I'll be working there this weekend (was volunteered). smile.gif

We go down there almost every weekend. I haven't seen you down there but since I've gotten married my wife seems to be making that trip more and more. I'll try to head down tomorrow to say hi and introduce you two to each other. I know Tori down there (the lady with the goat cheese) and I always like to give Didier a hard time in French. His products have been going downhill, cutting too many corners and cheaper and cheaper ingredients.

YOu should also try the italian ice sold at the Sahara cart. It's the best around.

Just stop by the Farmers Market in MC on a Saturday morning. Sahara has a booth, with the italian ice vendor right next to it. Great stuff.
