Emeryville workers are still mourning the loss of Argentinian asado purveyor Primo’s Parilla, which kind of got run out of town in January after some Emeryville restaurants got up-in-arms saying that owner Javier Sandes was operating a de facto restaurant in the street, with his big grill set-up. The city revised their street food ordinance, and now Sandes and partner Sere Peterson are on the hunt for a brick-and-mortar spot in North Oakland, or Uptown, as the East Bay Express reports. The new name for the business will be Javi’s Parilla, and Sandes hopes to find a space with an open grill set-up where he can still interact with customers. Fans can next find his grilled tri-tip and chicken at the Eat Real Festival on September 23 to 25 in Jack London Square. [EBX]
