East Village Eatery etc.: Leaving Lady GaGa unattended at ApizzA; riding bartenders at Cheap Shots; building a sidewalk cafe at Cienfuegos

The former Pinisi Bakery branch on First Avenue near First Street has quickly morphed into a /sandwich/noodle/rice shop....



Cienfuegos, a four-part planned series of Cuban-themed bars and restaurants at Sixth Street and Avenue A, is getting its shelter for the planned sidewalk cafe...



...and during yesterday's rain, parts of the overhang were flapping around in the wind....



Subtle humor at Cafe 81 on Seventh Street... "Beat off the heat..."



Gem Spa is seeing some daylight...




...and the punching game thing is gone!



The recently reopened Hanover Cafe at the former Mondo Kim's on St. Mark's has yet another addition...hope the sushi bar was put in after they were shuttered....



ApizzA's Lady Gaga sidewalk board on Avenue A was left unattended Saturday morning!



This would look cool in the Grieve living room, which is also the kitchen.



And just checking out another recent chalkboard sign at Cheap Shots/Spanky's on First Avenue ... Hey, working here people!



...still definitely leaving the youthful crowd behind!

    I'm not even a Lady GaGa fan and that sign annoys me. It's just so stupid. Are we really supposed to believe that she has endorsed that place? I'll take Mozzarella down the street over the A Pizza place any day!
