...and yesterday, workers unveiled the new sign...
Well, most new delis have this food court/regional airport terminal look these days... all selling panini, tossed salad, etc. Two quick examples...
Or maybe we need to say that they're better than [fill in the blank] a 7-Eleven...?

You should have seen it at night. The awning lights could guide 747s down at Kennedy. Horrid.
It is unique in that it offers "coffet" in lieu of coffee.
This is just what Frist [sic] Ave needs!
I hate these new "upscale" signs. As cold and generic as the old ones were neighborly and subdued.
Classic & gourmet. Two great adjectives that go great together.
There must be some kind of starter kit or manual for opening a New York bodega in 2012. I mean they seem to be getting so genericized and samey that its not much different from a 7-11 innit.
Dang I remember when a panini was something a little special now I guess its just another item in the laundry list of everyday shit.
Anyone know what's happened to the one across the street, just south of 7th St? I used to get my lotto tickets there, but it's suddenly shuttered without a note. The guys in there were always so nice.
I alwiys get my cofet on Frist Ave same plave I get my bath solts.
@Anonymous 1:25: I remember when "panini" was plural.
I think it's in response to Bloombergian NYC- they have to look shiny and new or Bloomberg will set his sights on their destruction- like bus shelters and Newsstands.
