Speaking of filament bulbs, the Pink Tea Cup was kind enough to send some shots from its reopening last night, and they’re in full effect! (You may have also noticed them back when we gave you a sneak peek of the new digs.) The Famous Pink Tea Cup, as it’s now dubbed, will be serving a preview dinner menu (which you can see below) until its grand reopening (for breakfast, lunch, and dinner) on June 14. Owner Lawrence Page is touting the fact that he has hired an “all-female led kitchen” in sous-chef Lander Glover, who was a cook at the original location for fifteen years, and executive chef Angela Groover, an events caterer and private chef who has a pretty great name for the chef of a live music venue. Here’s Groover’s limited preview menu. Cocktails ($10 to $12) are also being served.
