Boloco for sale?

Every so often, I do a Google Blog Search for "Davis Square". When I did so today, I found:

Quick casual café concept in Somerville MA

8 Jan 2008 Located in popular Davis Square, this is a high profile location with excellent visibility and parking and in close proximity to Harvard Square, Inman Square and Porter Square. The site is within... BizQuest.com: Massachusetts Businesses for Sale - http://massachusetts.bizquest.com/page1.html

The listing page itself carries no date, but I'm going to believe Google's "8 Jan 2008", especially since the listing currently appears on page 1 of massachusetts.bizquest.com, making it a very recent listing. It says they are selling the business for $250,000, after having sunk over $600,000 into renovations.

This sure looks like Boloco to me. Anyone know more?

Anna's default rice is cooked with chicken stock, but a couple of years ago they started carrying vegetarian rice as an option and putting up signs saying so. I don't know about the lard state of the beans, but only the refried beans would really make me worry on that front; the black and pinto beans are simple enough that I'm not sure where fat would be used in their preperation (and I have plenty of vegetarian friends who either knew about or were dismayed by the rice thing that I suspect I would have heard if there was a similar issue with the beans).
