Fusion Cafe

for those dallas-based malcontents who might not see the personal benefit of hearing about a place in plano, here’s a quick throw-away: some IL-based sub-sandwich chain called Jimmy John’s has opened a buncha branches in the dallas area (by SMU, @ preston-forest, Addison, Arlington, denton); they appear to be a beefier version of Subway. And now to the real item: Fusion Café, a coffeehouse (yo to the kneejerk "indie-is-better" crowd) in downtown plano in a site vacated by another indie, Coffee Haus (whose cousin across from SMU also closed. boohoo indies etc). Fusion faces a slight liability since it’s not on the main 15th st. drag but A++ to see it open in plano’s historic old downtown blah blah (which btw, the dipshits who run plano recently hired a task force to tell them that they need fewer antique shops and more coffeehouses. DUH)
