Chi Snack Shop opening in the former Mamoun's space on St. Mark's Place


[EVG photo from December]

You may have noticed renovations in recent weeks at 22 St. Mark's Place, the former Mamoun's space between Second Avenue and Third Avenue. (Mamoun's relocated to 30 St. Mark's Place in May.)

Per EVG correspondent Steven, signage went up yesterday at No. 22 for Chi Snack Shop...



...which is going to be an Asian snack shop serving a variety of candies, cakes and other desserts. Workers said the Snack Shop should be open in two weeks.

The steady stream of asian dessert places has grown tiresome and is quickly joining the ranks of bank branches, starbucks et al in what I perceive as the blandification of us. Thats right folks even multiculturalism can contribute to blandification.
