At 88 Second Ave, the diner Kitchen Sink went dark in the summer of 2021... and ownership later transformed the space into a Greek restaurant called Eros... which quietly closed in August 2022 ... to later emerge as Sunflower East Village, which closed for a "restructure" four months later. This sister cafe to the one on Third Avenue in Gramercy Park never reopened.
Now someone else will have a shot of making something work in this prime EV space...

I don't know what their business looked like internally before the pandemic, but it seemed like they missed a big opportunity. Kitchen Sink was almost on the level with Remedy and Veselka, it had some strengths the other two didn't in my opinion. Meanwhile Remedy and Veselka only ever become busier over time, and for whatever reason Kitchen Sink seemed to fade.
Puleeeeese just an old fashioned diner. Diner food, reasonable prices, Breakfast and lunch specials. Little Poland is the last of them in the neighborhood. Surely there's room for one more to be successful.
