No, not soup kitchen. A real, bonafide soup restaurant may be arriving in the dead of recession time, all the way from Guyana. So says Stabroek News about German’s, a local Tiger Bay restaurant specializing in soups. Rumor has it that they’re looking to open up shop right on Church Avenue in Crown Heights, where there’s a large Caribbean presence.
I guess securing financing, $130,000 of it, isn’t as hard in Guyana these days as it is in New York City.
The managing director of the Tiger Bay location says they’re aiming for a Christmas-time opening. Something to bring a little warmth and cheer to this coal-in-a-stocking holiday season, perhaps.
