Oh no! Remember that irresistible fried chicken joint, Crack Chicken, that took Ponsonby by storm? Well, it's time for a change. After just eight months of serving up deliciousness, the doors have closed, but don't despair! The restaurant is set to reopen under a new name: Honeymoon Avenue.
This news comes from restaurateur Albert Cho, who, back in February, famously declared on Instagram, "Friends are fake, relationships will cheat, family will disown you, but fried chicken is forever that b****." It seems even the most devoted fried chicken establishments aren't immune to the unpredictable nature of the restaurant world.
This pivot raises interesting questions. What led to this quick closure and rebranding? Will Honeymoon Avenue offer a similar menu, or will it be a completely new concept? But here's where it gets controversial... Did the restaurant's initial popularity wane, or were there other underlying factors at play? What do you think about the lifespan of a restaurant?
