We're curious to see what is taking the space that belonged to the Odessa Cafe & Bar, which closed for business last Aug. 31. Previous plans for the space fell through.

Eater reported that Andrew Carmellini and business partners Luke Ostrom and Josh Pickard are opening a "casual pasta shop" called Bar Primi at the now-shuttered Peels.

    My prediction - both will be some kind of fancy-schmancy grilles (please note the extraneous but apparently all-important "e" there) serving stuff like octopus tentacle tips in a pomegranate reduction, or other such absurdities.
