Ali and I stopped by Paola's Burrito Place (1921 South Ave., formerly Big Dog's Hots) for dinner. There's only two weeks left before they close to move back home for personal reasons. The good news, though, is that the owners plan to return to Rochester and open a new restaurant by next year. The new place will have a slightly different theme and — hopefully — more hired staff so they don't have to spend every waking hour doing all the work.
Funny note: City Newspaper's "Chowhound" finally mentioned Paola's passing: https://rochestercitynewspaper.com/restaurants/articles/2009/09/CHOW-HOUND-Comings-and-goings/ .
