Taste Mediterranean Grille closing?

taste I've heard that Taste Mediterranean Grillle in Towson has apparently closed, at least temporarily, until the restaurant's management company resolves issues with the building's landlords. The chef, Luigi Palumbo, is currently in Naples, Italy, tending to his restaurant there.

I'm trying to nail down the particulars, and I'll keep trying to call the restaurant and the management company.

Stay tuned.

UPDATE, 2:20 p.m.: I just called Strapazza Management, the management company responsible for Taste Mediterranean Grille, and was told that the problems there were in the kitchen and should be resolved by Monday.
