Chipotle on the Way
The neighborhood, which already has one Chipotle at 6th and 14th and another on East 8th St., will get a third one on 14th at Irving Place, in the location that used to be a card shop. Burritos for everyone!
You may remember The Adore on the 13th St. block. Now, a couple of doors down at the former site of the copy shop and, briefly, Blossom de Jour, will be a new French/Japanese bakery called Patisserie Fouet.
An unusual crime at Giant Bagel, on the corner of Universty and 13th, last Friday night:
Three peed-off perps brutally beat a man for taking too long in the bathroom at a Greenwich Village bagel shop, police said yesterday. The thugs — identified as Osman Jalloh, 19, Amadou Diallo, 21, and Mohamed Sow, 21 — became enraged waiting for Zaaven Castelan, 23, to finish his business in a restroom at Giant Bagels on University Place at 10 p.m. Friday, sources said. When Castelan emerged from the bathroom, the trio started pummeling him, the sources said.Police quickly rounded up the men.
Looks like Izu/Lemongrass Grill is done. In its place will be Shanghai Square. No details yet. Stay tuned.
The north end of Union Square Park will soon look a lot better. 21 trees are on the way.
