UNION SQUARE—Some ShutterWire for you this evening, from a reader, "...have you guys heard anything about this? chat n chew is 'closed for kitchen repairs'." Eater's calls to the restaurant yeilded bupkis—they didn't even have voicemail set up. And the clear nostalgia in the above note ain't good. Those with emotional ties to the restaurant may want to start planning the vigil. [EaterWire Inbox]

WEST VILLAGE—The 'Wire's gone dark today, as we have yet another possible shuttering for you. A reader writes, "What’s going on with Day-O? It’s been ‘closed for renovation’ for weeks now—with no sign of any renovation going on inside. They used to be packed until they renovated a while back and changed their décor to feature Japanese-y/Carribean illustrations on the wall. A strange décor choice that perhaps their diners didn’t like? It’s on a prime W Vill corner—too bad." Ah, the old "closed for renovations" ruse. An even worse omen: the phone has been disconnected.
