I think the fact that Balans couldn't make a go of the site long term is a sign of why Le Pain Quotidient couldn't - the rent and rates ARE overly high, making it difficult to maintain a business there and LPQ wasn't open in the evenings and, personal view here, had a limited menu. Balans made a great go of it for several years with fantastic staff, a good menu and good al fresco atmosphere. If a restaurant couldn't make the numbers add up I fail to see how a "half hearted coffee shop" that only opens for part of the day could. |
