A peek at three new restaurants, the brouhaha over 116 Duane, a possible sukkah in Duane Park, complaints about a popular café, and more.
Where do we start? Nam is closing, making room for a new restaurant. There's bar news (White & Church, the Duane Street one, another hotel rooftop bar). Something is going on at Megu, and a new restaurant is coming to Lispenard. Oh, and 403 Greenwich is back in play.
