Sunspot Freshbar has been dropping little Easter eggs here and there of vibrant, animalistic illustrations and murals that will ornament their soon to open lunchtime health food restaurant. Sunspot will feature a pay-by-weight salad bar, soups, smoothies, sandwiches, beer, wine and above all else fine art, because some desserts are better digested through your baby blues. The meals are meant to be quick, light, healthy and perfect for downtown workers on the move. Artworks will cover the walls like a nebulous composite of pristine pastoral wonder. The restaurant aims to open on April 14. You can find Sunspot at the 600 block of downtown, 601 Central Ave.

Sly Bar to Open in Grand Central District

The Grand Central District is about to go 8-bit with Sly Bar. The name is in honor of a one-eyed 14-year-old basset hound and is sure to harbor the same stubborn righteousnous of the iconic dog. Their bar will boast an atmosphere unlike any other on the Central stretch. Table top plug and play video games featuring classics like Asteroids, Centipede, Pac Man and Space Invaders will be yours for pixelated enjoyment. They aim to open by the end of the summer but the geek inside wishes its doors would unlock today. Sly Bar will be located at 2061 Central Ave.
