Welcome to the Lower East Side! (Sponsored in part by Ikea)

So I heard something about Ikea opening in Red Hook recently or something...Anyway, I managed not to pay any attention to the thousands of Ikea ads I saw around town this summer. Until yesterday, when I spotted this at the gateway to the LES...


And this? This ad was at Fulton and Water. So, if I'm getting this, I fork over $2,000 to a Scandanavian-based home products retailer so I no longer have to support local restaurants? And why limit it to Chinese food? I usually get Odessa delivered.
