As huge fans of Chuan Lu Garden on Colonial Drive, we've been wondering what this banner could mean since it went up last weekend. A takeout window? Maybe a delivery service? The possibilities were sort of thrilling.

The truth is somewhat less enticing, though it's great news for East Orlando residents: According to the employee we spoke to last night (because yes, we were there yet again), Chuan Lu is opening a second store over near UCF. They weren't ready to name an exact opening date, but we look forward to hearing about UCF students experiencing the joys of the numb-spicy Sichuan peppercorn by the time fall semester starts.
