From the Facebook invite:
"Come celebrate the reopening of B&H after nearly 5 months closed in the wake of the March 26 Second Avenue explosion and fire. Cakes, coffee, and challah! Standing room only (putting the chairs and tables in the basement for the event). Joining us will be guest of honor, Florence Bergson Goldberg, daughter of the original owners, Mr. & Mrs. Abie Bergson Goldberg. Thanks to #SaveNYC for their support!"

Thank goodness they're back. Not only is the food terrific, but the restaurant is memorialized in part 9 of Frank O'Hara's Second Avenue ("As I walked into the Dairy B & H Lunch I couldn't remember/your other eye") — much of which, said Joachim Neugroschel years ago, was written at the B & H. If so, we need another Frank O'Hara plaque.
Thank you Summer, I've been trying to find that quote!
