NEW YORK CITY— Right on the heels of B&J's free cone day, Dunkin' Donuts is holding a free iced coffee day on May 15: "Customers can walk into any participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurant throughout the country and receive a free 16 oz. cup of Dunkin' Donuts' premium regular...or many other delicious flavors. Dunkin' Donuts is honoring those who serve by donating $80,000 to the National Police Athletic League (NPAL) to support its Youth Leadership Program." [EaterWire]
SOHO— We just got word that Hundred Acres, the new iteration of the now shuttered Provence, will be holding its opening party on May 19th, meaning the public opening is only two weeks out. [EaterWire]
CROWN HEIGHTS— Brownstoner has the early word on the just-opened bar Franklin Park: "We stopped by the Crown Heights bar and beer garden on its opening night April 25 (totally packed) and last Friday, when even the patio was full despite the chilly weather...We're going to go out on a limb here, but we think this is going to be The Summer Place for a lot of people living in Crown Heights, Prospect Heights and Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, and for people visiting the Brooklyn Museum two blocks away."
