That's very sad. I liked the old-school character it added to Davis. I live around the corner from Lyndell's so I usually go there, but I've occasionally bought things at Contessa. I don't like sushi, so I'm really sorry to see it go.
Gentrification rides again. Hey, why not put in an upscale restaurant, like those really really successful operations over where Yee's Village used to be? Yeah, that'll work great. Just think! A new yupscale restaurant every six months! Whoopee!
Fuck it, let's just rip up every store on that block and put in an enormous Walmart. The kind that won't fill birth control prescription or sell CD with parental warning stickers.
