Poached soon is going to be toast—as in defunct. The local breakfast-lunch restaurant is permanently closing next week in Galleria Shoppes at Vanderbilt in North Naples.  

It wasn’t the plan for Poached’s co-owners to close this year after operating for 13 years in Suite 156 at 2355 Vanderbilt Beach Road. Chef Kenneth Vandereecken and his wife, Brandi Lostracco, wanted to extend their lease another five years, but May 28 will be their last day.  

Although Lostracco says they have paid their rent on time and have not had any issues until now, Shoppes at Vanderbilt management is not allowing the business to have a lease extension. The leasing manager could not be reached for comment.
