After years of delays, the owners of Grotto are supposedly just a month from opening their new bar and restaurant, Louie & Chan, on the Lower East Side. According to its elaborate fictional origin story, the place is supposed to be a speakeasy built by a cobbler and a stiltwalker, two immigrant best friends in the 1920's. In reality it will feature wood-fired pizzas, an "Asian opium den inspired" lounge, a private dining room, and resident DJs." [BB]
