Just did a full Junction walk along California (not to the approval of my dog :) to check restaurant signs and basically everything is either closed or an unknown (meaning they didn\'t have anything posted). I haven\'t called any of the unknowns, but I\'m assuming if they don\'t say, they\'re closed. Here\'s the full list in case anyone has info on the ones w/o posted signs.<br>
- Ama Ama: Unknown
- Tom Young Kum: Closed
- Yummy Teriyaki: Closed
- Elliott Bay Brew Pub: Closed
- Talarico\'s: Unknown
- Rocksport: Unknown (Forgot to check)
- Cupcake Royale: Unknown
- Jak\'s: Closed
- Matador: Unknown
- Maharaja: Unknown
- Garlic Jim\'s: Unknown
- Kamei: Unknown
- Lee\'s Asian: Unknown
- Shadowland: Unknown
- Shoefly: Closed
- Pagliacci: Unknown (I turned south after Shoefly and forgot to check)
- Bee\'s: Unknown
- Caper\'s: Unknown
- Azuma: Unknown
- West 5: Closed (although open on C-Mas Eve)
- Easy Street: Closed
- Great Harvest: Closed
- Poggie\'s: OPEN at 5:00 PM, but I don\'t think they serve food
- Taqueria Guaymas: Unknown
- Husky Deli: Unknown (although presumed closed b/c they are for other holidays such as Easter)
- Mashiko\'s: Unknown
- Puerto Vallarta: Unknown
- Bakery Nouveau: Closed
Sure, it would have been easier to just say \"They\'re all closed except for Poggie\'s,\" but you don\'t realize how many restaurants we have on one street in a 2-block area until you look at each of them and try to commit them to memory. Looks like we may start a new Christmas tradition this year: Dim Sum in the ID followed by drinks at Poggie\'s. :)
