A little piece of Paradise on 11th and B

Photo by Jose Garcia 

Workers today hoisted signage for Paradise Gourmet Deli on the NE corner of 11th Street and Avenue B. 

Early thoughts are this is a corner market-type establishment selling the usual corner market-type items (Sodas! Sandwiches! Tate's Bake Shop Cookies!)... as opposed to a smoke shop. 

This will end the run of restaurants to lease the space through the years ... most recently Khiladi NYC (2019-2023). Previous restaurants at this address have included Old Monk, Babu Ji, Spina, Uovo and Panificio.

Here's an updated look at the shop... they will be offering breakfast lunch, etc.

    Ummm we’ve all been fooled by signage before, this might end up being a dispensary. Which there is no need for another.
