-What’s going to happen to Meatpacking District clubs Merkato 55 / Bijoux? DBTH reports that Megu is interested in the space, but Guest of a Guest retorts that the party will live on in its current incarnation. Our prediction? We’ll be too busy scrounging up enough change to pay for a bottle of Four Buck Chuck to care either way.
-Now’s your chance to vote on a pressing issue: which is your favorite wine blog? Voting for the third annual American Wine Blog Awards is underway, and you can cast your ballot at http://www.fermentation.typepad.com. You won’t see NYBarfly among the nominees, but that shouldn’t stop you from writing us in. What’s that? They don’t take write-ins? Well, that shouldn’t stop you from sending the organizers a martini glass stuffed with twenty dollar bills. They’ll get the point.
-We’re heartened by all of the recession inspired happy hours. Grub Street has word that Elettaria is starting a happy hour from 5 to 7pm. This includes $8 glasses of wine, $4 beers, and $7 cocktails. Nice. Can anyone lend us 4, 7, or 8 dollars?
