Baoguette continues to keep the Bamn! memories alive

Wow, it has been a little more than one year since Bamn!, the garish automat on St. Mark's Place closed... The location is now a Baoguette ... and we just want to salute Michael Hunynh's gang for keeping the Bamn! spirit alive by never covering up its old sign...




And quickly, yet another salute to the EV eateries who continue to honor those restaurants that came before them...

Such as Hea to Friend House on Third Avenue...



... and Wally's Pacific Catch to Marfa on East Second Street...

    Am I the only person who liked BAMN! The little cheap greasy bites were the perfect drunk food or snack while you're out-and-about.

    St. Marks is nothing but Asian food now, which is sad if you're someone who hates soba, a dish which tastes like rubber surgical tubing floating in a dirty water broth.

    Thanks for the comment, Erin... I didn't like BAMN! But, I did enjoy people watching there... Kind of wish now that I had taken a few photos there...
