There is new food+drink life at the corner of 23rd and Union. Our sister site Central District News has the scoop on Mediterranean Mix:

When the Beehive Bakery went belly-up in November, there were fears the former Philly’s Cheese Steak building would go back to being endlessly vacant. But that’s not the case this time, as Pioneer Square’s Mediterranean Mix takes over the space to open their second location (as noted in this community post by MarkJ).

“I’ve got a lot of plans for that place,” said owner Otmane Bezzaz, who also runs Pioneer Square’s historic J&M Cafe. The new Mediterranean Mix will have a similar menu to the Pioneer Square location, but the increased kitchen space will let them add a few extra items. In all, there will be about two dozen Greek and Mediterranean dishes to choose from, including their signature chicken and rice. More at CDNews…
