The old MazaranI just drove by the space in Madrona last occupied

The old MazaranI just drove by the space in Madrona last occupied by Bistro Mazaran, a quirky French cafe that closed five days after my review came out, then reopened, then reclosed…and then I stopped keeping track. The sign painted on the window now says “Bistro Turkuaz.” A second sign promises that it will open soon. As I type, I’m saying a little prayer that the owners are going to really make this a real Turkish restaurant with hot and cold meze, kebabs, stews, and pilafs, and not a “Mediterranean” restaurant serving overcooked pastas and too much garlic. Let me know if you know anything…BISTRO TURKUAZ1114 34th Ave. (at Union)324-3039
