Papaya King is Open

So says Hilly Town. The spot formerly occupied by Big Mama's Diner is now a smoothie / hot dog place.

"To my great surprise, I found that not only was the rumored location of NY’s own legendary hot dog and fruit juice joint a reality, but the restaurant was already open! The space is bright and spacious - obviously much more so than the cart that the company had been operating in Deering Oaks Park this summer. According to the staff, they opened up last Thursday (1/8/09) and were still working out their menu and signs."
