Was there something like "Hoboken Taco" about 20 years ago? Or was that farther down around where the Able Baker is now?
There was a "Sprout" salad place along that strip. And some Burger something something...
(As my nostalgia moves to the other side of the two towns: The restaurants I miss the most are Lalibela, the Ethiopian restaurant that used to be on Irvington Ave near Riggs Pl, and Laura's corner restaurant just a bit further down Irvington Ave... which I can't believe I'm blanking on the name of...)

Hey MOL — I’m having a full-on brain fart 🧠💨
Can anyone remember all the restaurants that cycled through 175 Maplewood Ave?
I ate at Chutzpah tonight and immediately spiraled into nostalgia. Thinking about the good old days: working mornings at Cranes, then stumbling across the street to pull a double at Arturo’s like a champ (or a fool).
I vividly remember The Laurel (RIP, absolute gem 💔), but I’m totally blanking on the other spots that came and went. Help jog my memory before I convince myself this was all a fever dream. Thanks
