A restaurant’s closing isn’t an actual death, of course, yet many of them we mourn. Most of us end up short of candlelight vigils and rending of garments, but we often post loving social media tributes and engage in long discussions about the departed. Some losses are mourned more deeply than others. Will we ever truly get over 2015, the year The Silly Goose went away?

We now say R.I.P. to those dishes that left us in 2018. (Why have you forsaken me, Family Wash pot pie? WHY?) To make ourselves feel better in our grief, we did a little digging into what is being resurrected, either by the chefs of those closed restaurants or in the real estate that housed them, or both.
