In an Instagram post, Lucky Cat Ramen announced it would close.

“No more noodles for awhile,” Lucky Cat said in the post. “This pandemic has been brutal and it looks like we’re another casualty. We [love] you so much and hope to be back soon. #loveyou.”

Pancho Search

Pancho’s Cheese Dip created auto-filled search results in an Instagram post last week.

The search for “Pancho’s” yielded results like “Pancho’s where buy at 1 a.m.,” and the best one, “Pancho’s baby name legal?”
