We haven’t had the chance to make it down to the new East Village shit-hole Superdive (note, they would take that profane adjective as a complement). Our friends over at Eater and EV Grieve are doing a good job of documenting the debauchery. After reading what they have to say, we’re not sure that we’ll make it a point to stop by.
Here’s a scene from EV Grieve:
Just walked past superdive. there were these schmucky "dudes" screaming at the top of their lungs and chanting something at the girl across the street on a bench at OST. one "dude" was wearing a us marine corps shirt and i literally saw him rip off his dog tags and howl.
Eater questions the illegality of its “mix your own drink” gimmick. Convicted felons aren’t allowed to serve booze in any legal establishment. Judging by the descriptions, we think there are a lot of crime doers in the house.
Our main question: why did this neighborhood need a Superdive when it’s already got Cheap Shots? It’s like having Superman and Batman in the same city. It’d never work, especially if they were both wasted.
