| | | | | | Dojo’s Deconstructed. Today’s Labor Day stroll included 8th street between 2nd and 3rd avenues - more commonly known as St. Marks Place - where I walked by the location of the old Dojo’s at 26 St. Marks Place. Though still not ready to serve ‘eats,’ the new restaurant or vendor app... Read More | | | | | | A "turkey burger dinner" from Dojo. This fusion-y, Japanese-flavored place used to be a godsend in my college days because of its disturbingly cheap prices for somewhat "real" food, but at some point it hit me how grody the place was and I stopped going.

When we asked Andy Pan, who owns TKettle and has "partnered" with BBQ Chicken at this joint location, about it on Friday, all he could say was "It's killing me softly." Seriously, that's what h...
