Word on the street is that they are trying hard to get the Ingredient location at One Pacific Place.

We talked about it when I was at Pig and Finch last week. They want all their brands in all their markets.

I told Trenton and Jeff so they could use it on the show this morning, but I guess I forgot to post it on here.

Getting rid of Ingredient would be a blessing. But does anyone realize the irony if that happens?
The very first restaurant to occupy the Ingredient location was L&M Seafood Grill. It was wildly popular when it first opened, especially for their Sunday brunch. I have lost count of how many restaurants have come and gone in that space since then.

I think they have been closed for remodeling since the beginning of August.

Must be an extensive remodel.

Hope they finally find the money to make the place quieter. The metal ceiling tiles were rough on the ears.

What makes you say that? I've always thought Ingredient was delicious.

Ingredient is delicious. The One Pacific Place location is horrible though; Midtown Crossing and other locations outside Omaha are much better. Food quality and service at OPP have been very disappointing the times I've been there.

Didn't L&N leave then come back to that spot? I recall it that way at least.

Yes, and they failed miserably the second time around. When they pulled in their net the first time they alienated their customers, and when they tried coming back they discovered that their customer base had moved on. Sometimes you just can't go back again.

Oh, God, where to begin? The inane giant menu boards up on the wall when you first came inside the door. You had to crane your neck skyward to read them, like you were sitting in the first row of a movie theater. And then you had to memorize what was on them so when you finally got up to the counter to order you could remember just what three of 25 possible ingredients you wanted in that omelet. Then there was the coffee. A joke. And no cream or sugar options. And no coffee stirs. Time after time after time. Then the counter staff wouldn't let anyone in your group pay until everyone in your party got through the line to order. We once waited 45 minutes for an English muffin, all while watching the staff back in the kitchen snapping towels at each other. Need I go on?

The corporate website has removed all mention of the One Pacific Place store. Their Facebook page admits there is no schedule for initiating or completion of any "renovations". Kiss it goodbye.

Why do businesses do this? Are they genuinely undecided about their plans, or do they have some strange notion that keeping it open-ended will improve future business prospects?

So does anyone know anything for sure right now? Are they still trying to open an 801 Fish in the Omaha Market? Have they abandoned 1PP from their wish list? Where might they be looking now?
