La Taza

In May, I reported that Chelsea's wonderful La Taza de Oro had been shuttered for a month, due to problems with the neighboring building and Con-Ed's intensified restrictions and regulations enforced after the Second Avenue gas explosion.

Now I've heard some good news.



When recently checking in on the place, I chatted with a man who seemed to know what he was talking about. He told me, "We're opening in November."

Keep your fingers crossed.

If true, I will be there with a bottle of champagne.

According to this the building was put on the market for sale a month ago.

So I have my doubts

A curse on anyone who threatens or impedes the resurrection of La Taza de Oro!

Per chance, did they reopen? I haven't been there in years, but will be in NYC next week and hoping to swing by.
