DOH Chronicles Update: Country 'Closed For Upkeep'

Madison Square Park: While the DOH hasn't gotten back to us with their official report, we do have a couple updates on the shuttering at the troubled Country. Remember that on the phone the hostess told us there was a kitchen flood and that they would reopen after a re-inspection. Since then the restaurant's official PR has checked in to let us know that the DOH "found some minor infractions" and said they might even be open by brunch. No flood mention. And most interesting was an Eater spot check, where we learned that the DOH sticker is only on the street entrance to the restaurant. Guests entering through the hotel lobby (where there are no visible stickers) were told that the restaurant is "closed for the weekend for upkeep and maintenance." Sneaky! But perhaps not technically untrue.
