MERGED: Habana Tapas + another bar

I have not seen that yet but that'd be exciting...

Stopped in front of the old game store space on 5th ave between 21st and 22nd and asked one of the workmen what is going in there. His response: "another bar". He added that the owner is a nice guy and that "it will look like a ship inside".

I am fine with another bar, but I would love a new (good) food option or two. I should have asked if they will have food.

I believe the old Smolen spot is in the works to be a new bar as well. Can the neighborhood support all these new places? Are we seeing the survival of the fittest in action?

oh I've seen this place. Looks new and exciting. I can't wait until it opens!

Not sure why these threads were merged. I was not talking about the habana tapas spot. I think someone else just *really* wants to keep pushing it....
