Openings: Boongs Grab & Go on 3rd Avenue

Boongs Grab & Go debuted on Monday at 77 Third Ave. in a corner retail space of NYU's Third Avenue North Dorm at 11th Street.

As we first reported, this is a sister spot to Boongs Café around the corner on 12th Street (as well as Boongs Korean Fried Chicken on First Avenue in Midtown East). 

The quick-serve concept, which will eventually be open 24/7 and catering to students, offers a variety of snacks, drinks (from China, Japan and Korea), and prepared meals (noodle bowls, sandwiches, triangle kimbap, sushi rolls, etc.). 

Heavenly Market & Deli closed here last September after 10 years in business.

Signage alert: Boongs Grab & Go on 3rd Avenue

The owners of Boongs Café are opening a 24/7 grab-and-go market on Third Avenue at 11th Street. 

The aptly named Boongs Grab & Go will offer prepared meals, snacks, drinks and desserts from a retail space of NYU's Third Avenue North Dorm. 

No word on an opening date. (Boongs Grab & Go has an Instragram placeholder account here.) 

Boongs Café opened in January at 327 E. 12th St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue. The family-run business offers a variety of egg waffles, bubble tea and handmade Korean dumplings. The owners also operate Boongs Korean Fried Chicken on First Avenue in Midtown East. 

As for previous tenants on Third and 11th, Heavenly Market & Deli closed last September after 10 years in business ... taking over the storefront that housed Fern Cliff Deli, whose old sign was uncovered earlier this year.
