Mini Bar opens on Dec. 11

The new small plates-type place, on Seventh Street near Avenue A, will be the fourth business to give this spot a whirl in fairly quick succession. Of the previous tenants, this space has the best look and feel to it...

Previously hereabouts.

Mini Bar getting ready to open on Seventh Street (just a block away from Big Bar)

The new small plates-type place is coming along on Seventh Street near Avenue A...(will this cause confusion with Big Bar goers?)... Signs are up, with a "coming in November" notice.



This will be the third business here in fairly quick succession...

A Cure for this location?

Cure closed up a few weeks back...And now, the space is being renovated....




...people working on the old Cure said this spot will become a coffee shop/small plates place...they're looking to open in the next six weeks. Perhaps they can break the cycle here — three places in quick succession.

I walked by Cure last night on Seventh Street near Avenue A. And as I suspected, it's gone. The menus were pulled down from the window. The inside looked to be in disarray. Also, a man had set up his bed out front for the night.

We noticed that Cure was not open this past weekend. Maybe the owners of the small plates/wine bar decided to take the weekend off. Though you think they'd have left a note. Plus, well, they just opened in mid-April. Or maybe this space on Seventh Street near Avenue A is jinxed. In quick succession this spot was nearly the East Village Pie Lounge.... Previously, it was the short-lived Italian cafe Affettati.
