COLUMBIA — Lee Street Deli will no longer be canceling its late-night hours on Fridays and Saturdays, cook Jefferson Shuck said. He said the reason to keep the East Campus eatery open late on weekends was "unspecified."
Saturday on its Twitter account, the restaurant said that late-night hours — from 1 to 3 a.m. — were canceled for an "unknown" period of time. When asked Sunday, two cooks said the decision to not provide hungry night owls with the infamous "juicy burger" was not final.
Recently, the deli had its front door screen kicked in and the sign
bolted to the front of the building was removed. The tweet announcing
the cancellation of late-night hours mentioned that an employee's bike
had been stolen.
David Hornig and John Horner, both cooks at the deli, talked about vandalism in the past. They said clocks have been
stolen off the walls, mannequins have mysteriously walked off the
premises and a stolen newsstand was found in the front yard of an MU
fraternity.
