According to Community Board 3's SLA Licensing agenda, Sara Jenkins, the pork happy chef/owner of the runaway hit Porchetta, is looking to do a follow up. She is applying for a liquor license for a space at 21-23 East 7th Street, a half block from Cooper Square and two blocks from her original restaurant. Jenkins, reached at Porchetta today, says that everything is contingent on getting approval from CB3. If everything goes well, she'll sign the lease and then figure out exactly what concept would work in the space. Like its predecessor, the new location looks fairly diminutive.
Here's hoping CB3 next week goes easy on her.
