EVG Etc.: Updates on A10 Kitchen, Burgerhead, Kikoo Sushi, Cafe Skye

A tipster tells us that A10 Kitchen reopened last night. New owners took over the bistro on Avenue A between 10th Street and 11th Street... and closed for renovations for a few weeks.
A10 first opened in the fall of 2020.
Also from the EVG tipline: We're told that the Burgerhead outpost on the NW corner of Second Avenue and Ninth Street will be opening around Labor Day. 

Signage was first spotted last December, and there wasn't a lot of activity here earlier in the year. 

This will be the second Manhattan spot for the brand that sells burgers, chili dogs, fried chicken sandwiches, etc.
A for-lease sign arrived yesterday for a retail space on the lower level of 325 E. 10th St. 

The listing via Meridian Capital Group states it is "perfect for any dry use" here between Avenue A and Avenue B. So you'll need to look elsewhere to open an illegal after-hours joint!
Steven points out that Kikoo Sushi on First Avenue between St. Mark's Place and Ninth Street is closed for a "glow up" (aka renovations). Per the signage, they'll reopen in October.
EVG reader Brian Carroll shared the above photo of 520 E. 14th St. 

The owners of Cafe Skye on Clinton Street are seeking a beer-wine license (application here) for the small space between Avenue A and Avenue B. 

They are among just a handful of applicants on a light docket for Community Board 3's SLA committee meeting tonight. Details here

No. 520 was previously Dua Kafe.

Quick Serve = Tossable Trash. Any morning following a night of "revelers" the streets, tree pits, and parks are filled with pizza boxes, paper plates and containers, hundreds of loose napkins, plastic drink containers of all types, liquor bottles, soda & beer cans, and an occasional bar glass. (I have a collection of them.)
