Yum Yum Too has reopened from their two-​week renovations. Not too much has changed, it seems, but at least the Yum Yum trilogy is whole once again.

While many people were out roaming in costume on Halloween, Ñaño Bar & Restaurant held their grand opening night, which looks to have been a big success. The Ecuadorian spot is now open for business across the road from Hell’s Kitchen Park.

Here’s some photos from the opening, from their Facebook page:

They worked quickly over the month since we first checked in with the constructions, and the end result looks good. Head over to their site to check out the menu.

The long-​awaited Manhattan outpost of Brooklyn Fare opened last week on W 37^th St, and it’s already looking like it’s going to do well. The supermarket within it is stocked full of everything you can imagine, from made-​in-​store tortellini to flavored olive oils. We’ve had our eye on the not-​quite-​restaurant-​not-​quite-​supermarket for a while now, but now it’s finally a reality.

The place is somewhat split into two parts, and the supermarket portion of the place is fully up and running. The other half – a 45-​seat restaurant, with the notorious $225 multi-​course dinner – is scheduled to open at the end of the month, so you’d better start saving.

Green Rancho is now open, bringing an end to the Lime Jungle to Green Rancho saga. They’re current open with a “limited menu” while they get settled, but they’re already starting to get busy.

To recap, the place was previously Lime Jungle (sister store of the popular Limón Jungle a few streets north), but closed down for “renovations” several months ago. The plan was to reopen as Lime Jungle, but over the course of the months they eventually changed into the Green Rancho we have today.

Coincidentally, nearby 7 Brothers Deli also opened this week, after a similar extended break for renovations. Must be a trend.

After what seems like an eternity, 7 Brothers Deli on the corner of 49^th & 9^th has reopened. They closed for the renovations in June, and now, four months later, they’re ready, complete with all the celebratory decorations out for it:

Everything’s straight back to normal:

Just in time for winter.

A quick update on the progress of the incoming Pie Face to 8^th Ave (previously). Workers were in the store today, setting up the drywall:

The new store is coming along quickly:

It doesn’t look like they’re wasting any time on the new fitout. Won’t be long now before we get another try at the prize wheel!
