Dear Editor
Reading the front page of April 14 Record, I was very excited that Mr. Mikes wants to open at the Anvil, then to be “very disappointed” that mayor and council are taking a “pause” on the “space” which has been vacant since the Anvil opened in 2014. This location is perfect for a Mr. Mikes restaurant!
We do not need a more “upscale” restaurant in New Westminster, as one can SkyTrain it to Vancouver and take your pick of those! Has the mayor and council heard the saying: “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush”!
Hopefully our council will not “pause” too long as this space has been vacant already too long.
The Anvil needs revenue now, and in my opinion Mr. Mikes is a perfect fit!
