Paging Arthur Phillips

July 24, 2003 The latest rumor to make it our way regarding the name of the new Keith McNally eatery on Norfolk @ Rivington? Prague. (From the inside, our source also reports, "Lots and lots of vintage subway tile.")

Lotsa subway tile? I hope it has garbled announcements, earsplitting screeches a la Union Square, and reeky-decay-sweet piss smell, too.

What happened to the report on the new Surface Hotel? (off topic I know). That construction looks "troubled" to me. I.E. taking too long, warping plywood up high in the rain, ect. ? Lockster?

Turns out Prague is the name of the restaurant's holding company. Schiller's is the eatery. Tile going up on the facade today.

(Surface Hotel update to follow soon...)
