It’s Shark & Bake Day at Trini Pak: Found out a bit more info about Trini Pak's shark and bake that we wrote about last week. You can actually get the shark steamed or fried, but it's only offered Wednesday through Friday. They ran out pretty early last Friday, so if you want to check it out you might not want to wait too long to go out to lunch today.

S’Barro Files Bankruptcy: We'll try to eek out a little sympathy for fake pizza nationwide today as S'Barro announces its bankruptcy. The Wall Street Journal reports that this is only a debt restructuring and that they will continue serving middling pizza and pasta to tourists and mallrats for the foreseeable future. Still, some of us are holding out hope that it goes the way of the Pizzacone.

Bierhaus is Open For Lunch: A few weeks ago Mamacita gave you a Happy Hour look at the newly open Bierhaus (on 3rd Ave. btw. 44+45th).
