East Village eatery odd-n-ends: Roasted pig on Avenue C; snoop guard at Diablo Royale; orderly chairs at Village Pourhouse

Saturday saw Zum Schneider's annual May Day celebrating ...



...where people lined up on Avenue C and Seventh Street...



...to dine on swine...



The apparently shuttered Musical Box on Avenue B is giving away its couches...



Trash bags were up on the windows yesterday morning at the Cooper 35... Some students were inside filming, I was told by someone standing there... they were open as usual later...



Noted at Village Pourhouse on Third Avenue and 11th Street....



The coming soon Tallgrass Burger on First Avenue near 13th Street has posted its menu on the storefront...



The coming soon Diable Royale on Avenue A has put up snoop guards to ward off various bloggers and tipsters...



I have no idea what was happening here. However, as I learned in my Hyperlocal Blog Class, you always take photos of anything happening at Motorino on 12th Street...




I haven't been to the Holiday in months... since then they have added draft beer...



The owners of Ballarò Caffè Prosciutteria on Second Avenue prepped for their newly approved sidewalk cafe last week by repairing the big crack in the sidewalk out front ...




And for no reason, two photos of the Spring Lounge from last week... where Kate Hudson was holed up filming a scene for a movie that we will never see...

    Draft beer at Holiday? Hell yeah! It's been a while. Definitely a good reason to come back.

    Tallgrass Burger - in the old Elvie's space, right? I am still missing the Turo Turo.
