Short Stories shapes up on the Bowery



New awning alert at 355 Bowery, where a new bar-restaurant called Short Stories will be opening soon here between Third Street and Fourth Street. (The Brett/Beer sign has been up since the height of the Kavanaugh hearings.)

CB3 OK'd a new liquor license back in June for the the applicants, including Danny "The Wolf of Wilson" Teran, who runs several businesses in Bushwick, including Wheelhouse out on Wilson Avenue, and Williamsburg Pizza investor Ashwin Deshmukh.

The questionnaire on file with the CB3 application noted that Short Stories will feature "a mix of American, Cuban and Mexican fare." (Teran, a Cuban-American, specializes in Cuban cuisine. He also previously ran Millie's Cuban Cafe on Wilson Avenue.)

No word on an opening date. You can see updates on the interior via the Short Stories Instagram account.

Wise Men closed here in November 2017 after five years in business. And previously, the space was Osaka Vibe/Orange Valve — aka, that kind of weird sushi place on the Bowery.
