Some back rent due at ZaabVer Thai on 2nd Avenue

ZaabVer Thai has been out of service at 75 Second Ave. between Fourth Street and Fifth Street since the late spring.

A sign on the front door still claims "under renovation" while Yelp and Google list the restaurant as permanently closed.

Back on Thursday, a three-day notice arrived from the landlord... noting that the tenant owes $114,499.65 at $14,475.23 per month for the base rent ... plus charges for water ...

Openings and closings on this block of 2nd Avenue

ZaabVer Thai remains closed at 75 Second Ave. between Fourth Street and Fifth Street... a sign on the front door notes a renovation...



... but all other signs (disconnected phone, Google notice, etc.) point to a permanent closure. (Several people who didn't care for the food here referred to it as "ZaabwhateVer.")

In more positive news next door, Hot Box is now open at 77 Second Ave. (as of May 20) ...



Hot Box combines East Asian broth, noodles and meats and vegetables in their "signature burner system."
