The Local seemed to be going for a bit of a “feel” of an Eastern European bistro when they opened (three days ago that is). They had two tiki torches out in front of the restaurant that gave the place a nice feel as you walked in. Very warm and comforting.
Perhaps a bit too warm. The Fire Marshal stopped by this evening and the torches were gone within a minute.
Will we ever see the torches again? Did The Local not have a permit? Were the torches too close to the sidewalk? Would Queen have been able to put out the fire so quickly as the fire marshal did? These questions and more will be answered…on the next episode.
