837 Manhattan Ave.: NOT another dollar store!
I was skimming the CB1 mailing list about tonight’s hearing, and as usual, paying close attention to the liquor license applicants. One entry caught my eye:
Sakura 6 - 837 Manhattan Avenue
837 Manhattan Ave. is on the corner of Noble, where the hardware store used to be. There’s still a FOR RENT sign on it, but there is also a handwritten sign (magic marker on bright green posterboard) advertising the coming of Sakura Japanese restaurant, that has a branch in Ridgewood.
:::and there was much rejoicing:::
Now, when I think “Ridgewood” I think that wonderful, cheap, clean yet impossible to get to neighborhood in Queens, just over the border from Bushwick, but in this case, I think it might be Ridgewood, NJ, which is apparently home to a very well regarded Japanese restaurant called Sakura.
In either event:
1) NOT another Thai restaurant!
2) NOT another bank!
3) NOT another check cashing place!
4) NOT another dollar store!
Now, if the Ramen shop would only open up, I’d be in heaven.
