Morning Bloom to open in former Sweet Berry location

JANESVILLE— A new brunch restaurant, Morning Bloom, is preparing to open in the former Pearl of the Orient and Sweet Berry location, bringing another breakfast and brunch option to the area after Sweet Berry closed just three months after opening. Tuesday morning, the Alcohol Licensing Advisory Committee unanimously recommended approval to the city council for the restaurant’s license. Bardil Ahmedi, the new restaurant owner, is planning a similar restaurant that will operate every day from 7 a.m.-3 p.m. The building at 2701 Milton Ave. housed Pearl of the Orient from late 2022 until early 2024. Rio Brazilian Steakhouse then planned to move into space, but backed out last year. Former owner Tommy Nguyen’s mother Xinh Le owned Sweet Berry. His mom has been the landlord for a building that houses Riverside Family restaurant in Rockford, Ill. Last year, Le had the idea to open a restaurant of her own in Janesville, and the idea blossomed from there. After purchasing the building, they repainted its exterior, repaved the parking lot, cleaned inside and constructed a bakery area that will serve as a mini-café serving items such as pastries, coffee and tea. In October the restaurant abruptly closed. In a Facebook post
