Explosion at two Durango Restaurants

Two of the restaurants I blogged about in “Grubbin’ in Durango, Colorado” were destroyed in a fire and subsequent explosion on Friday, February 22nd. Le Rendezvous and Seasons, both located in historical buildings on the 700 block of Main Avenue in downtown Durango, were two of my favorite places to eat. I liked Le Rendezvous for a casual breakfast, and Seasons for an elegant dinner. (See the above mentioned post for details… )The fire allegedly started above Seasons, where there are reports that a kitchen exhaust hood wasn’t working. Luckily, the owner of Seasons is already talking about rebuilding. I hope Le Rendezvous will come back, too. Both will be missed in the interim.
