HERE'S PARK SLOPE: Sweetwolf's & Bike Racks

On Monday word got around that Sweetwolf's, the intriguing new restaurant coming to Sixth Avenue and 12th Street, is accepting all suggestions for menu items through their Facebook page. If your dish is chosen you get invited to the soft open and get to help tweak the recipe. Also, Chickadee Chick, the chicken-centric restaurant on Seventh, shut down.

On Tuesday I reported that Cobble Grill II opened on the corner of Sixth and 14th, where Balaka, the Indian Restaurant, had been before. Same owner, new strategy, but man, what a depressing space. Food is salads, sandwiches, and burgers.

Wednesday brought news that Grand Army Plaza's food truck festival would be now happening once a month, and some local business owners are pissed that they'll be losing business to the interlopers. I also tracked down some fresh-from-the-coconut coconut water, at the little fruit stand on Fifth and 14th.

On Thursday Mango/Remixed Thai Brasserie, the restaurant on Seventh in the North Slope that shut down last week, magically re-opened. Seventh Avenue is also getting a whole bunch of new bike racks.

On Friday I posted an early review of the new Greek restaurant opening next week on Seventh near Union, along with a full menu, and it was authentic and really impressive. They're in soft open mode for now, and (shh) all the food is free until they open for good. I also took a look at Prime Six's nearly-completed facade, and noticed that a new women's vintage clothing store, Pony, has opened on northern Fifth Avenue.
