After publishing this post about an Osaka department store hilariously advertising its "Fuckin sale," we got an email from Ron Silver, owner and chef of New York's Bubby's restaurant. "I feel personally responsible for this Fuckin Sale," he wrote. He attached a picture from the opening of Bubby's branch in Yokohama, Japan in 2009, where a sign advertised Bubby's Fuckin Fresh lemonade and Fuckin Fresh & Delicious food. Much to the surprise of visiting English-speaking tourists, Fuckin Fresh is the the unofficial slogan of Bubby's Japanese branch, printed on menus, signs and t-shirts.

Yesterday the DOH came for Serendipity. Today they've shuttered inexplicably popular Tribeca sandwich and pie spot Bubby's. Where will Robert DeNiro brunch now? Where will Gisele get her poached eggs? Where will David Blaine eat waffles? Someone call the UN Refugee Agency, we're gonna need some blue tarps in Tribeca, STAT! [Eater]
