The Groundhog Did It-- Part 3

Even though I wasn't that hungry, I just had to stop at the new ABC Greek restaurant, on the site of the movie's Tip Top Cafe where so many scenes were shot. Bill Murray's puddle is also just outside the place.

Angelo's Family Restaurant across the square and next to the Opera House (Pennsylvanian Hotel) was supposed to be the original Tip Top, but the vacant store across the square was chosen.

There was nothing in it, so the crew built a restaurant and ran lines for water and electricity. When shooting was over, they removed everything unfortunately. For many years, it sat vacant after that and then a series of restaurants tried and failed to do much.

One called itself the Tip Top Bistro, but featured upscale food. Another was an ice cream place. It seemed that whenever there was a place open, either we weren't hungry or felt they were too expensive. Or, they were closed or out of business.

As such, we never got a chance to eat inside and I really wanted to because of the movie experience.
