The Joys of Luisa

Now that Luisa Hanson is dead set on shuttering Cafe Maritime, its owner Mark Mitcheltree shares his first experience of the joy, along with a small victory: "It's confirmed: she has bought 2417 Lombard St., home of Cafe Maritime. As is her wont, she immediately informed the proprietor, Mark Mitcheltree, that his lease would not be renewed. Says Mitcheltree after his first taste of Ms. Luisa Hanson: 'She's a shark.' ... According to Mitcheltree, Ms. Hanson was under the impression that the liquor license—of the coveted type 47—belonged to the location and not his just-evicted business. When she discovered that this was not the case, 'Luisa was furious.'" [BS]
