2009_10_big_star_opening.jpg It was only a couple weeks ago that Big Star was announced as the name of the Paul Kahan taco joint in the old Pontiac Café space. Now there's a firm opening date: November 9.

This photo was taken by Kahan's publicist and posted to Twitter Saturday, where it promptly blew up like all good viral marketing and PR. We were too far into a meat coma to deal with it then.
