we’ve ferreted out some more info on the former bodega space at the corner of greene and waverly (posted about here.)
riding the bus down greene ave. the other day, i spotted two people standing outside the space and was pretty positive that one of them was josie smith-malave, former season 2 top chef contestant and former clinton hill chef (which we mentioned here.) i hunted her down on the internets, emailed her, and got this reply:

an interview is in the works….
