M. Wells food and drink coming to MoMA PS1 (and nearby)

Things could get even drunker at MoMA PS 1’s Warm Up parties this summer, according to DNAinfo.com. Community Board 2 recently approved the museum’s plan to serve liquor and food in a collaboration with M. Wells Dinette. The restaurant (which once served the area but closed after a rent dispute) will be re-opening inside PS 1 in June to seat 55 people. The establishment, featuring Quebecois cuisine and run by married restauranteurs, Hugue Dufour and Sarah Obraitis, will be one of their two Long Island City establishments, according to the NYT. “M. Wells Steakhouse, with about 80 seats and outdoor seating, will occupy a vacant garage at 43-15 Crescent St.” the site reports. So what is Quebecois food? Apparently it’s french fries covered in cheese curds and gravy and meat pies. Blame Canada.
