David Gilberg and Carla Goncalves' Koo Zee Doo (615 N. Second St.), which we first noted in late August, is hoping to be ready for a Thursday, Oct. 8 opening, Goncalves tells Meal Ticket. That's not set in stone just yet, as they're waiting on some inspection-y stuff, but that's the current plan. More on the spot soon; for now, hit up their Web site or check after the jump to for the Portuguese-inspired menu.
