Checking in on Checkers



As we noted back in late August, a Checkers is opening at 225 First Ave. between East 13th Street and East 14th Street … they've been collecting résumés the past few weeks…



… and the logo for the burger chain is now up inside…



No word on an opening date. Higher rents forced the previous longtime tenant, Gabay's Outlet, to leave the storefront for a new home at 195 Avenue A last summer.

    What does Checkers sell? Is this a normal restaurant or an all-pudding kiosk?

    A couple years too late on the now-cooled off burger trend. The bloom is even off the Shake Shack rose at this point.
