Notes on Lower East Side
Read off the board, in numbers you can check.
The Ten Bells serves oysters at a dollar and Close Up does wings at the same price, which is as low as the board goes. It still starts later than most: more than a third of the windows open at five or after, where four o’clock is the rule almost everywhere else. Arrive later than you would anywhere north of Delancey.
