On March 23, its final day, it will host a farewell party with unlimited food, drinks, and baked goods for $10 per person.

4) Williamsburg: Manna, a falafel and gyro spot on Lorimer Street, has shuttered. A tipster writes in with word that, according to building permits in the window, it will be replaced by a coffee shop.

The fast food opeartion was located in the back of the space that once housed Table 12, but apparently Kool Bloo was lost in the shuffle when that restaurant recently became Au Za'atar. There is still a Kool Bloo in Soho, the last of what was once a three-location mini chain. [EVG]
