MEATPACKING DISTRICT— A tip from someone eavesdropping at a recent visit to the doomed Florent: "Just overheard a waiter telling a regular customer who'd just been gone awhile that yes they are closing. They are supposed to close in March but, and here he put his fingers to his lips and whispered shhhhh, the landlord isn't going to kick them out. but, he advised, 'we'll have to be quiet about it.'" [EaterWire]

CHINATOWN—And there's an update on Andrew W.K.'s new music venue Santa's Party House, which is set to open in early April: "SLA spokesman Bill Crowley tells us that although the authority provisionally approved a liquor-license application in 2006, it ultimately rejected it last Friday (as indicated by documents we’ve obtained), since the place hadn’t yet acquired or submitted a certificate of occupancy, among other things. " [Cutlets]
