Also - the prices were even higher (amazingly enough) than the old place!

Food was still good, just not as good overall from the original. Has the original also changed up in their new locale? I know they merged/were bought by a bigger company so I'm hoping they didn't get ruined there too.
Since the original owner/founder/chef shot himself in the head (he did not survive) Lunchbox Lab has gone downhill. The two locations they have now are the brainchild of some scheme to make money on the former business' name.

Their food isnt nearly as creative. It's not good. It's overpriced. But they nailed at least four old lunch boxes to the wall of each location in some attempt to justify the name.

I visited the new Seattle location ONCE and will not be a customer of theirs again. The former business was awesome (except the location), but times have changed.

oh wow, that sucks. Hopefully it wasn't his bidness that put him over the line. Always sad to hear of stuff like that.

So random question, how hard do you think it would be to buy an evo 9 up in Canada and bringing it back here? Just a normal evo, cluster is even in MPH. Would love to trade my car in if possible..

okay. I emailed them. Im pretty sure the car was originally from the US. So I would assume it shouldn't be to hard if that's the case. I asked for the vin to make sure though.

Anyone here have a small portable torch? I seized one of the bolts on my turbo and it will NOT come out. Need some heat to get that thing out.
