Ball Square Breakfast War Leads to Fisticuffs

Looks like the feud continues and has heated up a bit:

I predict detail cops will soon be a daily sight in the square. The next city fundraising effort will focus on tickets for blocking the sidewalk.

I thought the original cook was still with Yassir, and Ball Square got the original prep chef?

There was that famous poster exchange a few years ago when BSBC wouldn't let Yassir renew his lease and put up a sign that said "New look, same cook!" and the poster next door that Yassir put up which said "He was just the dishwasher!"
