What’s Going On At Former Formosa Cuisine Spot In Poughkeepsie?

Recent activity seems to indicate that a new business could be coming to the spot that was also once home to the original Coppola's of Poughkeepsie.

I remember my friend Guy Alexander telling me about Formosa Cuisine in Poughkeepsie, and how great the food was. I went and tried and remember how amazing it was. That had to be about 5 years ago. Shortly after my visit I noticed they had closed suddenly with no reason given.

Formosa Cuisine was a Taiwanese restaurant that was located in the same building that was once the Original Coppola's of Poughkeepsie (a fine Italian restaurant) at 825 Main Street in Poughkeepsie. Formosa had been a popular spot with amazing food that garnered many 4 and 5 star Google reviews but only lasted a few years there it seemed.

In a Reddit posting just 4 months ago, a user posted: Does anyone remember Formosa Cuisine in Poughkeepsie? It's been five years since they closed I'm still haunted by memories of great meals there.
