69 Bayard

 VANISHING

69 Bayard is the little restaurant in Chinatown where the walls are covered with dollar bills.

It's been there a long time--I don't know how long and the man who answered the phone was too harried to answer that question when I called, but he did tell me that this Saturday will be 69's last day in business.

I also don't know the reason for the closure.

The restaurant is known and loved for being a late-night nosh.

It will be missed by many.
