Sao Mai now open on First Avenue
Quantum Leap closed on Nov. 17. Workers at the vegetarian restaurant on First Avenue near 12th Street had told regulars that their landlord hiked the rent.
And now, the restaurant that took over the space is open ... several readers noted that the Vietnamese eatery called Sao Mai opened Saturday...

A cover-up at St. Brigid's
Last week, workers wrapped a tarp around part of St. Brigid's as renovations heat up... On Friday, workers covered the rest of the church's front on Avenue B (at Eighth Street) ...
Penny Farthing sibling Linen Hall now open on Third Avenue
Here we are at the former Cosmic Cantina space on Third Avenue... The Penny Farthing owners have taken over the space... and it's open... CB3/SLA OK'd all this in November 2010, as Eater reported.
Don't know much about how this place is different from the Penny Farthing next door. (Never been to Penny Farthing.) Early word on Linen Hall: Neighborhoodr called it "very nice" and a "welcome addition to the hood."

4 holiday-related events that you can do today in the East Village
You can:
• Attend the Tompkins Square Park tree lighting at 4
• Shop at the "De-Flea Market" at Bar 82
• Go to the The Neighborhood School’s Holiday Fair
• Visit the Christmas Bazaar at the Ukrainian Museum on East Sixth Street
Let me know what I'm forgetting in the comments... (What I'm forgetting about holiday-related events, that is...)
Tree Lighting this afternoon in Tompkins Square Park
The lights are on the tree...
The festivities get started at 4 ...
As The Villager reported this week, the Tompkins Square Park Neighborhood Coalition will dedicate the event to the memory of Kevin Dowd, a former vice president of the coalition who died March 8 after a battle with lung cancer.
It could have been a very different tree lighting this year... Hurricane Irene brought down a tree back in August that nearly took out the Park's Holiday Tree...

Cleanup today at 26 St. Mark's Place
This morning, crews were on the scene at 26 St. Mark's Place, where a fire broke out yesterday...
As DNAinfo reported, the fire started on a mattress in the third-floor apartment.
And from outside the building... the apparent culprit in the fire ... via @joshappelbaum ...
We hear that some residents are blaming a longtime tenant for the blaze.

Someone has already thrown away a Christmas tree
On St. Mark's Place. Or is this left from last year? Also, we haven't forgotten about the whole Christmas in June/July/August/September
