EaterWire: Shutters in Midtown and BK, Eleven Madison Park Joins the Club, and Free Pizza

SHUTTERSVILLE— We have three big shutter reports coming in all on one day. First, Midtown Lunch reports that both Sophie's Cuban on 40th between 7th and 8th and Two Boots in Rock Center are closing. Luckily both chains have other successful locations. Meanwhile Grub street breaks the news that Cobble Hill's Trout is doneski, as are Jim Mamary's plans for an oyster bar. [ML; GS]

UPPER EAST SIDE— Free food alert from 2nd Ave near 82nd St: "Opus, the Upper East Side’s gluten-free Italian eatery and bar, is offering free slices of pizza with the purchase of any drink at the bar everyday from 5 – 6 p.m." [AMNY]

MADISON SQUARE PARK— Eleven Madison Park was just designated Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux, a high honor shared by Per Se, Le Bernardin, Daniel, Jean Georges, and Aureole in New York. [EaterWire]
