Restaurant openings report

Chubby’s Tacos (748 Ninth St)

Also, rumor has it Five Points Cafe (next to Toast) just had its final inspection and will be opening imminently. Although, this has been the rumor for a half year, so take it for what it is.

UPDATE: Chubby’s isn’t really open, unfortunately, but there is painting being done on the outside so maybe it will be soon.  It’s where Xiloa used to be.  Something to look forward to, maybe.

New site feature: Restaurant openings report

We have written some code to parse information on the Durham County Restaurant Inspections website to determine when new restaurants open in Durham. We will process and report on this list at least monthly, and possibly more frequently depending on how frequently Durham County updates their data. Here is the first batch, which may include some slightly stale information because it is the first time the report is being run:

Chick-Fil-A @ Renaissance Village (7836 Leonardo Drive)
Chipotle Mexican Grill (2608 Erwin Rd Retail Space 17)
Downunder Pub (802 W. Main St.)
Dream Cafe (3550 N Roxboro Rd)
Hilton Garden Inn (7007 Fayetteville Rd)
Mami Nora’s Rotisserie (302 Davidson Ave)
