Former O Gil restaurant spot in Fall River up for grabs | Exclusive

A well-known Fall River restaurant spot is gearing up for another new chapter. Just over nine months after Sosabi Restaurant and Bar opened at 915 County St., taking over the space that served as longtime home of Portuguese food fixture O Gil, that space is now up for lease. North South Property Management posted Nov. 10 that a “fully operational, turnkey restaurant space” on County Street is “ready for its next owner/operator.” Kristin Teves, owner of North South Property Management, who has managed the property for over 20 years, told The Herald News that Sosabi restaurant has been closed for three to four months after it “failed miserably.” That included contending with noise ordinance violations , before the business was eventually evicted for nonpayment, she said. The fully-equipped restaurant space, which accommodates 200 people and is located on the ground floor of the three-story County Street building, is available for lease for $3,000 a month. “Ideal for an experienced restaurateur, hospitality group, or entrepreneur looking to open a restaurant without starting from scratch,” reads the post.

She started dancing in the Roaring ’20s. At 102, Cape Cod’s ‘Tiny’ hasn’t stopped

When Grace Marie Ferreira wiggled her toes upon hearing music as a child in the Roaring ‘20s, her mother declared she would be a dancer . Now Grace Catrambone , 102 years old and 4 feet 9 inches tall, is still dancing several times a week and is well-known in Falmouth and across Cape Cod at ballroom and line dancing events as “Tiny the Dancer.” “My faith and my dancing have kept me going,” she said in her cozy Falmouth apartment on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Born in Falmouth on May 27, 1924, she also credits family and friends for helping her to keep active and live independently. Grace points out the many framed photos surrounding her living room – the 1906 wedding portrait of her parents, George and Anna Ferreira; her twin brother, Anthony, in his Merchant Marine uniform; her great-granddaughters and her many current friends at their dance parties. She also proudly notes several quilt hangings featuring her favorite cardinals, made by her daughter Ruthann as well as special gifts, including a small tree that was loaded with $100 bills on her 100 th birthday. Catrambone grew up on one of Falmouth’s biggest farms Grace's mother, born in 1882,
