My colleague Mary Jane Smetanka reports today on how the Jun Bo Chinese restaurant at 7717 Nicollet Avenue in Richfield has worn out its welcome with the city of Richfield. Rowdy drunken patrons, apparently fueled by buckets of beer, have intimidated neighbors and, on March 5, created a melee that left a bloodied man outside and other bloodied customers storming the stage. The cops had to clear the restaurant. Smetanka's story is rounded out by $74,000 in unpaid taxes and a mystery man named Mingo. Even if the city had allowed the restaurant to keep serving liquor, the dim sum carts would have to stop rolling later this year when an expanded Menards will take over the site.
