"The Manhattan Mall on 34th St. & 7th Ave. has sold the food court space in their basement to J.C. Penney, and most of the places have already closed. The biggest casualty, Manhattan’s only Arby’s, the undisputed favorite for fans of fast food roast beef flavored bologna. It will be missed. Also closed, Wok & Roll, Chicken Bar/Ranch 1, Sbarro’s & Cajun Cafe (home to the world famous “bourbon chicken”). Still open, the Japanese stir fry place, the Nathan’s/Arthur Treacher’s combo, Subway, Charlies and the Desert Moon Mexican place?but I wouldn’t count on them being opened for much longer."
