DJDiva reports from what sounds like the aftermath of a food war:

... Where did all the 'restaurants' go? The whole thing is boarded up shops. It looks like a mall 4 days before it closes forever over there.

With bonus rantage about the Macy's and other stores there (but with kind words for the Mac stores and Legal Seafood).
