— After four months in the dark, 73-year-old lunch counter B & H Dairy will spring back to life tomorrow. The restaurant had its final Con Ed inspection yesterday, and last night the owners posted a picture on Facebook of the range with flames rising from the burners with the note: "Gas in On! B & H will reopen on Friday!" The restaurant was forced to close due to the horrible Second Avenue explosion in March. Neighbors and fans set up online fundraising campaigns to help owners Fawzy Abdelwahed and Ola Smigielsk keep up with the rent and repair money while the restaurant was closed.
B & H is one of the last members of a dying breed of good, small, old Manhattan lunch counters. It is your duty as a New Yorker to visit this restaurant at some point over the next few months — even if it's just to grab a juice to go.
