			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered what a dark chocolate chili martini tastes like, you can now satisfy your curiosity. In fact, lots of new restaurants and stores will give Upper West Siders a<span id="more-6510"></span> new perspective on their neighborhood. But just like that dark chocolate martini, this Open and Shut is bittersweet, as some well-loved neighborhood spots are closing.</p>
<p><strong>OPEN:</strong><br />
<strong><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-6512" title="Picture 1" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Picture-1-150x150.png" alt="Picture 1" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>Taberna</strong><br />
A new tapas place has opened in the former home of Luzia&#8217;s at 429 Amsterdam Avenue between 80th and 81st Streets, <a href="http://www.menupages.com/restaurants/taberna/menu">serving</a> exciting dishes like artichoke carpaccio with salmon roe, and dark chocolate chili martinis. (image via <a href="http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2010/05/taberna_slideshow.html#">Grubstreet</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Arpeggio Outdoors</strong><br />
Lincoln Center opened an outdoor cafe that will be serving food and drinks in the centrally located Josie Robertson Plaza through July 30. Check out our write-up <a href="http://westsideindependent.com/2010/05/27/lincoln-center-opens-new-outdoor-cafe/">here</a>.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-6340" title="burberry" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/burberry-150x150.jpg" alt="burberry" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>Burberry Brit</strong><br />
The British have invaded, setting up shop right next to the Ugg shop on Columbus between 67th and 68th Streets.</p>
<p><strong>Atlantic Grill Lincoln Center</strong><br />
A new seafood restaurant run by <a href="http://www.brguestrestaurants.com/">B.R. Guest Restaurants</a> will be opening up in late August in the spot that O&#8217;Neal&#8217;s is vacating  (see below) at 64th Street near Broadway.</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-6514" title="naturino" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/naturino-300x225.jpg" alt="naturino" width="300" height="225" /></strong><br />
<strong>Naturino</strong><br />
Greenstones, a kids&#8217; clothing store on Columbus between 81st and 82nd Street is moving down the block, and soon it will open a companion Italian shoe store next door called <a href="http://www.naturino.com/">Naturino</a>. (thanks to tipster Glark)</p>
<p><strong>Big Daddy&#8217;s</strong><br />
As we told you <a href="http://westsideindependent.com/2010/05/22/big-daddys-is-open-eat-burgers-to-80s-music/">earlier</a>, the 80&#8217;s style diner is open and serving on 91st Street and Broadway.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>Ditch Plains</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.ditch-plains.com/">The West Village fish shack </a>is  planning to expand into BarBao&#8217;s old space at 100 West 82nd Street by September.</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-6051" title="ollies" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/ollies-150x150.jpg" alt="ollies" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>Ollie&#8217;s To Go</strong><br />
The noodle shop <a href="http://westsideindependent.com/2010/05/17/new-uws-ollies-take-out-spot-close-to-opening/">is opening</a> a new takeout spot on Broadway between 89th and 90th Streets.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>SHUT:</strong><br />
<strong>David Rubenstein Atrium</strong><br />
Lincoln Center&#8217;s David Rubenstein Atrium on Broadway between 62nd and 63rd Streets is temporarily closed for construction, meaning no free Thursday concerts and no &#8216;wichcraft for a few weeks. It will reopen on July 19. <a href="http://new.lincolncenter.org/live/index.php/about-the-atrium">Click here to find out where at Lincoln Center to get discounted tickets and tours in the meantime</a>. (<a href="http://myupperwest.com/upper-west-side/rubenstein-atrium-closes-construction/">My Upper West</a>)</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-6257" title="oneals" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/oneals-150x150.jpg" alt="oneals" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>O&#8217;Neal&#8217;s</strong><br />
The popular bar and restaurant for theatergoers and other Upper West Siders on 64th Street off of Broadway is <a href="http://westsideindependent.com/2010/05/25/oneals-on-64th-closing-seafood-moving-in/">closing its doors this month</a> to make way for the Atlantic Grill. In <a href="http://www.onealsny.com/1-home.htm">a letter</a> to customers, owner Michael O&#8217;Neal said the company incurred too much debt during its last renovation. &#8220;So rather than further increasing our debt we have made the painful and heart wrenching decision to close.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-6513" title="tibet" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/tibet-300x179.jpg" alt="tibet" width="300" height="179" /></strong><br />
<strong>Tibet Bazaar</strong><br />
The Tibetan craft store on Amsterdam Avenue between 82nd and 83rd Streets is closing up in July after the owner decided to return home to Nepal. It had been open since 1992. (special thanks to Kate for the tip and photo.)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week, two more stores at Columbus Circle have either opened or are preparing to open. Michaels, the Texas-based crafts chain, has opened its first<span id="more-1960"></span> New York City store, and TJ Maxx will open shortly. Other businesses, including a tapas restaurant called Taberna, are also on their way.</p>
<p><strong>OPEN:<br />
<img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1962" title="michaels" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/michaels-150x150.jpg" alt="michaels" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>Michaels Stores</strong><br />
The craft store has opened, or at least &#8220;pre-opened.&#8221; The grand opening is on Oct. 25, but the store is already selling merchandise, and people have been handing out coupons at subway stops for the pre-sale. Shoppers can get 40% off any one regular-priced item with a coupon (didn&#8217;t get one? the first person who <a href="http://westsideindependent.com/contact-us/">emails us</a> can have ours.)</p>
<p><strong>Taberna</strong><br />
The new restaurant on Amsterdam between 80th and 81st will be opening in December with 22 tables and a bar with seating for 12. It will be open 7 days from 5 p.m. until 3 a.m.</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-1963" title="tj maxx" src="http://westsideindependent.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/tj-maxx-150x150.jpg" alt="tj maxx" width="150" height="150" /></strong><br />
<strong>TJ Maxx</strong><br />
The Upper West Side is either getting much more convenient, or turning into a strip mall. Discount retailer TJ Maxx is set to open in the Columbus Square development between 97th and 100th Streets on Oct. 29.</p>
<p><strong>Community Food and Juice</strong><br />
The brunch spot between 112th and 113th on Broadway with an emphasis on local organic food closed in April because of a fire, but reopened on Wednesday (<a href="http://www.foodandthings.com/2009/10/upper-west-side-restaurant-community-food-and-juice-reopens-today/">Food and Things</a>)</p>
<p><strong>A New Boulud?</strong><br />
Daniel Boulud, of Bar Boulud fame, has confirmed that he&#8217;s opening two new eateries on the corner of 63rd Street and Broadway (the Chase Bank spot). He&#8217;ll be opening a sandwich spot as well as a more traditional restaurant. The date? To be determined. (<a href="http://ny.eater.com/archives/2009/10/boulud_taking_the_bank_opening_two_new_venues.php">Eater</a>)</p>
