Popeyes Construction Set to Begin, Pizza Hut Demolished and Cleared (Briggs Chaney)
Back in November we let you know that Popeyes will be taking over the old Pizza Hut location in the Briggs Chaney shopping center (13886 Old Columbia Pike).
It has been over a year since we let you know about the La Gula Mexicana taking over the old Agrodolce spot in the Milestone Center in Germantown (21030 Frederick Rd Suite J).
Though Agrodolce is missed by many in the community, Diners can take solace in the fact that the new restaurant will be owned and operated by the folks who have brought you Taco Bar (in the gas station in Rio) and Ixtapalapa in Gaithersburg.
