Cafe, tapas bar proposed for former Avenue B pet shop


Zee's Pet Shop closed up here on Avenue B just south of East 10th Street last spring. Now there's an applicant with designs on opening a 30-seat cafe-tapas bar with a retail component. The applicants will appear before the CB3/SLA committee this month.

Reps for Donostia (EV Cafe LLC), 155 Avenue B, filed an application on the CB3 website for a beer-wine license. Here's what we know from looking at the document online (PDF):

• The proposed hours are 10 a.m. to midnight.

• Listed food: "Spanish tapas, sandwiches, salads, meats, cheeses, etc."

• "The principal has worked as an employee a several fine dining establishments including Craft, db Bistro Moderne, Estiatorio Milos."

And a reminder about the meeting info:

  1. walked by today and sign in the window says they're doing "conservas". Clearly they've not done their research. The 2 canned seafood spots in all of NYC should not be steps away from one another. Idiots.
