Signs of life at former Heartbreak space

Heartbreak, the Swiss-German eatery, closed last October after short run on Second Avenue and Second Street ... As Scoopy first noted at The Villager, owner Christos (Pylos) Valtzoglou is planning on opening a place called Boukies that will specialize in small plates of Greek food — mostly meze...

There's some progress to report. The Heartbreak sign is gone.


And there's a menu for Boukies up now...


Diner's Journal reported that Boukies will open in March.

    Come on, the place is just too big to be so expensive. Like the place at the corner of bowery and bleecker, if you charge too much in a large space, it's just going to keep turning over and over. Do these folks not know there are schools that teach "business models"? Geez, take a restaurant class. If you don't have major angle, then stay small or stay cheap or stay in bankruptcy court.

    Still find it mind-blowing that they shuttered on the day of getting their Michelin star.
