- The Dallas BBQ in the new Rego Center in Rego Park has opened.
- Piu Bello will be opening soon - or maybe it already did? Haven't had a chance to look - in the space formerly occupied by Positano, across from the Post Office.
- The spot eternally under construction next to the Bukharian Jewish Center on 70th Ave. is reportedly to become at least partly new condos.

- Vornado Realty Co. reportedly wants to build yet another shopping center near the Rego Center in Rego Park.
Green Sky, the Korean place next to Tako Sushi on Austin St. lower level has closed as well. A 'For Rent' sign adorns the exterior. It was a nice little spot, but oft neglected because of its location. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteJust how many Asian restaurants were there tucked away down on that lower level? I do remember seeing Green Sky, but never ate there. It wasn't there for very long if I recall correctly. Shame it has closed, if I'm thinking of the right one.
ReplyDeleteThere was Tako Sushi, the Thai place now known as Mint, and Green Sky. Green Sky was there for about a year and a half. Good food. It was one of my favorite places around here, but being tucked away there, not many people noticed.
