Also...at Odessa...

Where you won't be drinking tomorrow: Lucy's

Because she's on holiday...

Nothing better than the pre-holiday rush in the neighborhood...

...except maybe sitting at a bar watching it unfold over drinks...

Still. A few favorites.

At J. Baczynsky's East Village Meat Market...

Rumors!: Will PJ Hanley's be opening a pizza shop on First Avenue?



Following up on the scoop from yesterday, intrepid EV Grieve reader dmbream has heard that the PJ Hanley's folks will be opening a pizza shop at 122 First Ave. Makes sense, given that the Carroll Gardens location added a coal-burning pizza oven last year.

Owners of Molly's Pub giving FiDi a gastro pub

Peter O'Connell and John Ronaghan, the proprietors behind Molly's Pub on Third Avenue and the Paris Bar and Grill on South Street, are opening a new gastro pub at 110 John Street in the Financial District. A liquor license is pending.




This is the former home of One Ten Bar & Grill, which closed in February.

Since Le Souk has closed...

So yeah, since nightlife hellhole Le Souk has moved on ... the doorways of the adjacent apartment buildings on Avenue B between Third Street and Fourth Street have been painted...

Now!




Then!

Good news: The Blarney Stone has reopened

Yesterday, in fact, after being closed for nearly three weeks...

Will this be the worst movie ever made?



Or at least the worst movie poster ever made. Third Avenue near 11th Street.

Another East Village hookah bar closes

Several readers have pointed out that the Revitali Hookah Lounge‎ at 125 First Ave. between St. Mark's and Seventh Street...



....recently closed. The space is now for rent.



Meanwhile, there are only 592 hookah bars left in the neighborhood...
