Zymology, Dallas “gastropub” on Greenville Avenue, closed on Monday

by Teresa Gubbins

Owner let the world know via Facebook.

DALLAS — From Benjamin Zymology Verdooren's Facebook status:

I want to thank everyone that supported my restuarant. But sadly I have had to close my restuarant. I closed this past Monday, Zymology is no more. Again thank you for those who supported me.

Kind of abrupt, given that Verdooren's status on May 13, one week ago, was touting the restaurant's $15-bottle-of-wine special on Wednesday nights.

D'oh, that sucks! I hadn't made it there yet, but, from everything I'd heard, this was the kind of place that Lowest Greenville desperately needs.

I am really sad they couldn't afford to hang in there a while longer. My sister and I had visited every time we were down in the neighborhood and I loved the place. Pretty ironic that they get a nice mention in the Observer this week as well.

The place was really nice and unique, however they really needed a new owner. That attitude will not get you anywhere in life. The only reason many places cannot survive on lower greenville is because there is one person causing all the negative publicity for this area. That person has no job, no education, no money, obese, obese wife and kids, and will hopefully get his hideous home foreclosed on soon. Then he will know how it feels to lose something you worked your whole life to obtain. This guy is messing with business people's livelihood. That is a big no no in my book.
