EAST VILLAGE— For the third summer in a row, Avenue B restaurant Back Forty will host a Tuesday night Chesapeake Crab Boil. The $42 per diner cost gets you Spiced Blue Crabs, seasonal sides, and desserts like seasonal fruit cobbler. They begin on June 15 and run through Labor Day. [EaterWire]
NOHO— The next Community Board 2 meeting isn't for another week, but the NoHo News is using its LoFi website to get the neighborhood ready for a fight against several applicants. On top of their list is the Smile, the charming Bond Street cafe that is looking to upgrade from a beer and wine license to a full liquor license, which the News says violates the previously agreed to stipulation that the Smile never apply for a liquor license. Next on the list is Hung Ry, a new hand pulled noodle shop that had to withdraw their previous application for a wine and beer license. Finally, they want to put an end to the all night ragers at My Friend's Place, a studio space that has taken to hosting monthly parties. [Noho News via GS]
