Two Roadfood restaurant closings (The Only Cafe & Liehs & Steigerwald North)

 
1.)  The Only Cafe - Verona, NY  I spoke with owner Dave Furer recently after his sister, fellow Roadfooder Lexi, had passed away.  He had some health issues as well and needed to close the restaurant about 18 months ago while he took care of himself.  It is still closed but he does hope to reopen at some point.  I do hope he can make a comeback as The Only Cafe was truly a unique experience with fantastic food made by a one-of-a-kind guy.
 
 2.)  Liehs & Steigerwald North - Liverpool, NY  On a recent visit to Syracuse, I notcied that the sign for this place wasn't on display in the strip mall where it is located.  
A quick online search yielded this result: http://www.syracuse.com/r...estaurant_concept.html
This location has been closed since May of 2016.  I hope to check out the meat market/deli/pub location on future visits.  The original location of their meat market at 1857 Grant Blvd. in Syracuse, NY is still open and their landjaegers and pepperettes are excellent.
