IMAGE VIA BROWNSTONER

Apparently Khozee Cafe, that blazingly mediocre diner wannabe joint on 6th Ave between 6th and 7th Streets was closed down by the Department of Health, only to be ceremoniously re-opened by, uhm, Kohzee Cafe. Without the DOH's permission.

Someone's gettin all "HELL NO, WE WON'T GO" on the city's ass. Behold the following tale from an anon FIPS reader:

Happy May, my friends! On Monday I reported that Ha Noi, the neighborhood's first full-on Vietnamese restaurant, had opened its doors over the weekend. It's got a huge menu, and so far it seems promising. Old man bar Jackie's Fifth Amendment also re-opened to the public after being closed for a couple weeks post-DOH inspection.

UPDATE: According to the owner, PSBklyn is NOT for sale. They think that perhaps they're being sabotaged?! DRAMZ!

BREAKING: MAMA ROSA CLOSED!?

Ok, so while I certainly don't relish the news that yet ANOTHER local Park Slope business might be shuttered, this one hits pretty darn close to home.

Zagat reports:

"Merely seven months after opening, Park Slope's Mamá Rosa Latin Bistro appears to have given up the ghost. Walk-bys on Friday and Tuesday nights have found it completely empty, and a call to the restaurant during business hours redirects to a full inbox."
