Meju closes

It looks as if Meju, the Korean BYOB Double Shots owner Steve Cho opened in the fall of 2007, has ceased operations at 213 Chestnut Street. Despite its sweet location on paper, this has traditionally been a very tough space for restaurants: Prior to Meju, it was chef Todd Lean's Mandoline, which closed despite spirited raves from Craig LaBan and many others.

The number on the "For Rent" sign, if you're interested, is 215-939-1516.
