Armenian restaurant Garden Bay Cafe (1788 Sheepshead Bay Road) has renovated its location and tossed up a new sign. According to a member of the family that owns the restaurant, they’ve also done some work on their menu by expanding the offerings. We hope that doesn’t mean they’ve removed classics like the blackened trout Village Voice gushed over. (UPDATE: Apparently the sign isn’t finished yet. It should be ready in about a week.)
Down the block, Ginger Rose Hair Design Studio (1804 Sheepshead Bay Road) has closed two thirds of its storefront operation for renovations. They’re still open for business and expect to finish the work in about a month.
We also just got word that Chop Stix Stir-Fry, Asian Noodle, Sushi, & Grill … err… Chop Stix (3790 Nostrand Avenue), formerly known as Peking Kitchen, got its hands on a liquor license and is now serving up sake and other booze.
Finally, it looks like Brand Z For Less (1805 Avenue U) got an extension to its lease. The sign that went up a few weeks ago saying “Must Vacate January 31st” now says “Must Vacate February 28th.”

Awww. Ginger Rose. That's where I got my first, last and only perm about 24 years ago. I just want to say I love this site. I grew up in the Bay, on E. 12th Street between Y and Z. I live in Kentucky now, though not by choice. If it didn't cost $1500 a month for a roach infested studio in Brooklyn, I'd be back there now. Here in Louisville, I have a 650 sq. ft. one bedroom with a fireplace, balcony, tennis courts, a gym, parking, two pools (indoor and out) and I pay around $600 with utilities. But it's in Kentucky. Oh well.
Hey lfthndwv (so… how do you pronounce that?). Thanks for checking out the site and we're glad to hear from you. You can definitely get better than a roach infested place for $1500. Perhaps an ant infested place
Well, keep on commenting – it's the conversation that makes everything worthwhile!
lfthndwv is short for Left Hand, WV. I do a blog about the (real) town and my crazy ideas for creating a left handers' utopia there. If you ever feel like checking it out, here's a link:

Hey LFT, I'm not 100% sure but I think blogger/blogspot has an OPEN ID which you can use to login for commenting here, and link your blog through your username. That way whenever you comment someone can click your name and get sent to your blog!
