A former employee posted on Facebook today that another Lafayette restaurant is closing.

In a Facebook post, a former employee of The Mellow Mushroom asked people to go visit before the restaurant closes for good this Sunday.

To confirm the rumor, I called The Mellow Mushroom, and the employee who answered the phone did confirm that the restaurant will be closing, for good, this Sunday, June 4th.

What is wrong with this location? It seems that nothing lasts here. Toucan's, Bootie's, Bako's, Serrano's - none of them lasted for more than a few years. Is it the parking? Is it the shape of the building? Is it the location? Is there a curse on this corner? Why does nothing last here?
