East Village Feed

A Mardi Gras-themed saloon is set to open in the coming weeks on a stretch of Avenue B near East Third Street that has weathered its share of neighbors-versus-nightlife spats in the past.

The new bar Billy Hurricane’s, as well as a smaller sister bar downstairs, aims to bring a taste of Louisiana to the East Village, from Cajun cuisine to a New Orleans-inspired aesthetic, its owners explained.

Billy Hurricanes will be upstairs. Idle Hands will be downstairs. More info here: http://billyhurricanes.blogspot.com/2010/03/billy-hurricanes-idle-hands.html
