WILL NYC “FLIP” FOR FOIE GRAS MILKSHAKES?

Because I was on vacation last week, there’s no Dishing column in today’s accessAtlanta. But some news just can’t wait until next week, when Dishing returns:
Concentrics’ Piebar will soon have a new name and concept to go with the fresh paint job — Nikita Parlos has leased the space and is scheduled to reopen the former Trust Company Bank space, designed by Henri Jova in 1962, this fall. The new name? Eros Tapas Bar.
Il Mulino, the Italian favorite in New York, will open a satellite in 191 Peachtree Tower in Buckhead.
101 Concepts, which operates Food 101 in Morningside and Sandy Springs, Meehan’s Public House in Sandy Springs and Vinings and Coastal Kitchen in St. Simons, Georgia, has sold Soho, their restaurant in Vinings, to the restaurant’s operating partner, Frank Smith.
Richard Blais confirmed yesterday that rumors his high-end burger concept, Flip, going to the Big Apple are true — but no details yet. Meanwhile, I’m still waiting for particulars on Flip in Atlanta. He told Time Out New York in a July 17 interview, “It’s the next market we’re looking to hit.” Milkshakes made with his favorite toy, liquid nitrogen, will apparently be on the menu according to the article, including a Krispy Kreme version. So much for foie gras.
Where’s your favorite milkshake?

Eros tapas???!!! thats all ATL needs, is another friggin tapas joint.
Flip concept in NYC is only 4 years late… ie: POP Burger.
Enuff with the liquid nitrogen already… it has failed in every single resto he had on the menu here in ATL.
