Another week, more burgers, and the rise of Jennifer McMillen. Here's your weekly roundup of news from Here's Park Slope.
On Monday, the legendary soups of Chef Richard Gussoff said goodbye for the season, as The Soup Bowl, on Seventh Ave just north of Ninth Street, said farewell. Uncle Louie G should be opening back up in that spot pretty soon, and we can most likely look forward to several Soup Bowls come next winter. Fez Salon and its hero, Rudy, also picked up and moved two doors down, into the space last occupied by Under the Pig Collectibles.
Tuesday finally brought March, and with it came the grand opening of Cheeburger Cheeburger, the Florida based chain, in the former Miracle Grill space on Seventh and Third. The burgers are greasy, the onion rings are awesome, and the room is pink. And that's the last time I'll be writing about Cheeburger Cheeburger. Signage also went up in the windows of the former Willie's Dawgs, on Fifth Ave between Fourth and Fifth, for a new Peruvian bistro named Surfish. I also had a chat with the nice lady who'll be running the new artisanal yogurt shop, Culture, coming to the old Serene Rose space on Fifth Ave between Third and Fourth.
Hey all, welcome back to the second installment of This Week in Park Slope, or whatever you feel like calling my weekly roundup of news from my blog, Here's Park Slope. Let's get to it.
Hey folks, it's Dan from over at Here's Park Slope. Every Friday I'll be publishing a weekly roundup of Park Slope news and other stuff you might find interesting here. Yes, today's Monday but it'll be published on Fridays from now on.
Last Monday, word got around that there's a petition against the Grand Prospect Hall. It's not saying not to build it, just to do some impact studies about how a grotesquely out of scale hotel could negatively affect the area and its residents.
On Tuesday, the rumors first posted here that a pizza place was coming to the little space just west of the former Artesana (on First Street near Seventh Avenue) were confirmed. It'll be an outpost of South Brooklyn Pizza, run by the folks behind P.J. Hanley's, the popular Carroll Gardens bar. This pizza won't be like what you get from your usual slice joint; it's a little more upscale. News also broke on Tuesday that the former Second Helpings space, on Ninth Street just east of Seventh, would be turning into a Vietnamese restaurant. And there was much rejoicing.
