Is Milk Street Cafe On The Verge Of Closure?
It took forever to open in a huge space on Wall St., and now it appears that kosher food court Milk Street Cafe could shutter and the finger is being pointed at the Occupy Wall St. protests. According to the story, 21 people have been laid off and the manager says they could be three weeks from closing after only being open for a few months. The prices are a little high, but for a lot of people this was an awesome lunch destination if you were kosher or just vegetarian. Update: It looks like a little publicity helped because, voila, the barriers lining Wall St. were taken down on Wednesday.

How much of the lost revenue can actually be blamed on the protest? They very recently opened, and honestly, their food was boring and overpriced. What’s to say those factors didn’t contribute to the decline in business? The barriers weren’t insurmountable for lunchers, but in my opinion, the food isn’t worth the effort.
