RIP Gertel’s Bakery

“Gertel’s Bakery”:http://nymag.com/listings/stores/gertels_bakery/ is “closing this Friday”:http://racked.com/archives/2007/06/18/breaking_gertels_bakery_closin.php, June 22nd. So hurry up and make your pilgrimage to this New York LES classic before it becomes a Starbucks or a “bank”:http://heebmagazine.com/blog/view/129.

(And looks like the “vLES”:http://heebmagazine.com/blog/view/149 needs it’s first update. Unless the virtual Gertel’s will live on forever in cyberspace.)

What do you think?
