Bonte, the wafflery, has closed its store at 1315 Walnut St. as owner Brad Messinger says he's stepping up the catering side of the business. His locations at 922 Walnut St. and 130 S. 17th St. remain, as do the franchise locations in North jersey.

The rub with 1315 Walnut, he told me, was that hot food cannot be prepared on premises.

Bonte catering is really, really good! Their signature salad is the best. (I don't work for them, either, but have used them many times for breakfast and lunch meetings)
