Gado Gado Packs It In

Decatur Metro | March 30, 2008 | 10:47 pm

I must admit that I’ve been anticipating this store closing for months.

Due to the fact that 1.  we live in Ponce Heights and 2. we have a dog that needs to be walked multiple times a day, we are very frequently passing by Gado Gado, which sits along the western edge of Ponce next to Whit’s End and Intaglia.  And honestly I can’t even tell you the last time I saw someone come in or out of that store.

All that said, I wasn’t all that surprised when I saw a “moving sale” sign in their window this unseasonably cold afternoon.  According to all-knowing window signs, the store is “consolidating” and moving everything over to their flagship Amsterdam Walk location.  But this hasn’t stopped them from putting things on sale, so if you’re a fan of their Indonesian style furnishings you can get 20%-50% off deals from now ’til April 13th.

    A previous comment by “lara” to this post was spam.

    I love fake comments that start “Dear Friend”.

    A reliable source told me that the Gado Gado space is where our new running shoe store (Fleet Feet) is going to be opening.
    Speaking of running shoes “Big Peach Running Co.” will also soon be moving into the building formerly occupied by Potato Finger (114 East Trinity Place)

    Soon Decatur will be a running shoe Mecca!

    I hope the influx of running shoe stores doesn’t bring down One Step at a Time in Oakhurst Village…

    Thanks Rus.

    I actually already posted about Big Peach but hadn’t heard about Fleet Feet. Their website does indeed have a Decatur-Coming Soon tag, but no address yet.

    Wow…that’s an awful lot of running shoe stores all at once.
