East Village eatery etc.: Percy's opens tonight; Caffe Buon Gusto loses an awning

Percy's Tavern on Avenue A and 13th Street does open tonight...



Sintir quickly became the Olivia Bistro on Ninth Street between Avenue A and First Avenue....




An EV Grieve reader notes that someone removed the canopy from the never-opened Caffe Buon Gusto on Fifth Street and Avenue B...



The Village Pizza Restaurant and Pizza joint on First Avenue near Second Street is closed now for some reason.... DOB signs on the gate..



A "for rent" sign just went up at the former Layalay space on Avenue B....



And there were big lines at Katz's yesterday.....
