Bu.ku Looking for New DTR Location
From the News & Observer...
“The second Triangle location of Bu.ku opened its doors over the weekend in Wake Forest, and the original downtown Raleigh location likely will be on the move in 2019.
Bu.ku, which opened on South Wilmington Street in 2010, focuses on Asian fusion, writing a menu of curries, hot pots and sashimi. Owners Sean Degnan, Tony Hopkins and Todd Ohle later opened so.ca in Cameron Village, also specializing in fine dining takes on street food, this time Latin American flavors. So.ca opened a little more than a year ago.
Meanwhile, the original Bu.ku is looking for a new home in downtown Raleigh. The owners posted on the restaurant’s Facebook page Sunday that the lease was going to expire at the end of April. But a short-term lease was worked out with Red Hat, who owns the building, to keeping bu.ku in its current location until January, the post said.
After that, it looks like “bu.ku 2.0” will open elsewhere.”
