La Bonne Bouffe bows out of Avenue B

La Bonne Bouffe, a cafe-bakery-small-plates-type place, opened on the corner of Avenue B and Second Street in March 2009... The hours have seemingly been erratic of late... and the gate was down all weekend...



Sadly, it appears the eatery has closed. Yesterday morning, a reader noted that five-day demand for payment notice appeared on the front gate... The space is also on the market — $4,400 per monthly...

Anyway, always seemed like a tough sell — La Bonne was the third cafe-bakery-small-plates place to open since January 2009 on Avenue B between Second Street and Seventh Street... The Wall Street Journal also mentioned the eatery during its New Crowd Descends on East Third Street piece on Dec. 3...
