Plywood Report

Novare Res ("to start revolution") will be a European-influenced beer cafe at 4 Canal Plaza with (and I quote) "no widescreen TVs projecting the current sports game, pin-ball or video-gambling machines, or eye-sore flashing neon lights promoting a bland, watered-down, mass-produced product," and 25 beers on draft, via PCC (Thanks anon!)

Wharf Street's Digger's and Liquid Blue closed this month, and The Iguana, also of Barf Street, is expected to close in a few months. Cake will also close, but Oasis, which closed in 2006, is back at the Threeways location, via tB.

Crab Louie on Commercial St., is now One Eyed Jacks Pizza. [Addendum (thanks anon!):] And an optimistic Evangeline hopes to open the Feb. 1 (more on that here), a day before Fransisco's at the Blue House Cafe serves its last dinner service.
