Seen & Heard: Japanese market opens today

HASHI MARKET OPENS TODAY
The Japanese market on Greenwich and Franklin opens today, Friday, at 9a. (Thanks to B., A. and R. for the intel and the pics — everyone’s keeping an eye on this one!) I will stop in today and have a post for Monday. That’s the former Tribeca Tap House, which closed in spring 2019, and readers noted that “hashi,” which I Google translated to “bridge,” can also mean chopsticks.

DRY CLEANER OPEN IN FIDI
O. sent a note from Fidi that a relatively new dry cleaner that has been hidden under a sidewalk shed at 26 Beaver (just west of Broad) for a couple years is now visible and open, and she said they are very nice folks: Max Cleaners, offering wash & fold, organic dry cleaning, plus alterations with a dedicated changing room. 212-227-9090. Hours are Monday to Friday, 8a to 6:30p, and Saturday 10a to 3p.
