Scarr's Pizza, Oaxaca Taqueria, Angry Burger, and More Behind the Plywood

LOWER EAST SIDE — A 1970's inspired slice joint called Scarr's Pizza is getting ready to open next door to Fung Tu. There will be booth seating, soda fountains and sprays (including one with coconut water), wood paneling, and all. Owner Scarr Pimentel has worked at Lombardi's, Joe's, GG's, and several other pizza places. He plans to open mid-September but that's pending a gas hookup, which may be challenging. Fung Tu has been operating for a month now with no gas, and alleges that the gas leak came when Pimentel's team started construction, Pimentel refutes that. 22 Orchard Street. [BB]
