Vegan restaurant the Rogue Panda promised to let customers know where they turn up, writing, "We'll keep you posted!!" In the meantime for the next 30 days, please support us and all of the other vendors in the market. Pho Mo's Cesar Zapata wrote, "For some of us and our employees to find out about the closure in this way is unethical and unprofessional! This is not correct!!!"Ĭhick'N Jones sent out a plea for fans of its fried chicken to support the market while it's still open: "Be sure to follow us as we navigate this and look for a new home.
