Newsflash: New bars and restaurants revitalizing the 'far' East Village

The Post helpfully notes notes that the "once gritty far" East Village is getting "revitalized" by a lot of new bars and restaurants...


The 10-eatery chariticle lists several over-hyped places such as Goat Town, Edi & the Wolf, the Cienfuegos complex, Bedlam and Octavia's Porch... as well as places that may not be as well-known on the greater NYC radar, such as Percy's Tavern on Avenue A and 13th Street and Revision Lounge, Johnny's B's spot at the former Musical Box on Avenue B.

  3. Lots of bars and restaurants in the 'far' EV all right, but no fishmongers and the only butcher left is at 2nd Ave & 8th. That's revitalized?

  4. perhaps it's a conspircay by the landlords and developers to slowly get rid of all the groceries so that we residents are then forced to eat every meal in an overpriced restaurant
