Mynt Fusion Bistro.

A new restaurant is scheduled to open soon here in Lowell. It is named the Mynt Fusion Bistro. No, I didn’t make a typo. That is the way they are spelling it. Either that or the sign company had to give them a fantastic deal on their screwup.

Mynt Fusion Bistro resides in the old Seven Eleven building, which closed and became Wolf Doggies which closed and became Big Dish which also closed. In all actuality, Wolf Doggies, featuring hot dots and an assortment of breaded deep fat fried stuff, lasted the longest of any of the former occupants.

Now according to the paper, Mynt Fusion Bistro’s claim to fame is Asian food with Thai as their main focus. Unlike most Chinese restaurants which offer only buffet tables of hours old food, their food will be prepared fresh for each customer.

Now, when I think of a bistro, I think of French Onion soup and Cog Au Vin and not Gang Gai. And while I love the rich flavors and pique of Thai food, I wonder how well it will be accepted here in Lowell.

In particular, I wonder how many people are going to be lured by the word Bistro only to discover that there is no steak there. And by the people who love good Asian food but are deterred by a bistro.

When it opens, Kathy and I will have to check it out.

  2. My wife and I will be checking the place out in a couple of weeks and we are looking forward to the meal. I really like Gang Gai and Pad Thai.
