Coming soon: Senorita Pepper's Southwest Grill

Published Nov. 29, 2006 at 2:03 p.m.

Three months ago, The King & I moved one block west of its old location, 823 N. 2nd St., to 830 N. Old World 3rd St. Soon, Senorita Pepper's Southwest Grill will take over the old space. The Tex-Mex restaurant-to-be is currently being renovated, and according to owner Derek Phoungphol -- whose family owns the King & I -- it will open in three or four weeks.

"We've had a couple of setbacks, but we're back on track and will open within a month," says Phoungphol.
