Not sure what’s going on here at the Calle 6 Cuban Deli at Park & 6th, but it sure looks closed – just about six months after opening. The website is still online as well as their Facebook page, but no notice of closure anywhere.
The food was pretty good here, too. Oh well – what would succeed at this spot? Is it just the lack of exposure and street traffic?

Nice to see genuine locals start businesses in Hoboken these days. In this case, Leo Coto and his brother Darien who recently opened Trim Barbershop at 303 First Street.
The two brothers had been cutting hair in Hoboken for a long time, and have had long stints at area barbershops before opening their own shop. The 1st St. location, while not their original choice, was an acceptable alternative to Washington St. rents, and has enough foot traffic to keep them busy.
Because of their reputations in Hoboken, they already are busy every day – even cutting the hair of many city firemen and police officers. The space is well laid out, and not pretentious. Full service cuts & shaves are $25, normal haircuts are $20 and clean-ups are just $10 bucks. You can walk in or make reservations. See details below.

Here’s another great option for you if you don’t feel like partaking in the alcohol-infused Hoboken LepreCon this weekend.
A few months ago – Revival Vintage Boutique moved from their previously tiny & cramped location at 600 Park Ave., to a fabulous spacious spot in the southwest corner of town at 47 Harrison Street.
The new spot is packed with tons of hand-picked vintage clothing for ladies and gentleman – along with accessories, jewelry, some furniture and many other interesting items from days past.
This particular location is great too, because they get plenty of afternoon sunshine which adds warmth to the throw-back shopping experience. Plus, you might have the pleasure of hearing their singer/guitarist perform while you shop (he’s there once per week…)
Note: They have rather unique hours – Tuesday through Thursday 12-8pm, and Weekends 11am to 7pm. Closed Friday and Mondays (for now).
“After four years of business, we have been able to expand and move to a new location at Chambord Place, 47 Harrison Street (between Newark and Observer).
Here, in our showroom location, we have over 3,000 sq feet of vintage clothing. We have larger sections for both men and women and still can offer quality garments from the late 1800′s to the 1980′s.

Designers like Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Courreges, Valentino, Hermes, Gucci, Geoffrey Bean, Vera, etc.
Come visit us to enjoy our: weekly live music performance by Tony Simpson, staff seamstress who can custom alter your garments and our staff stylists who can help you find that special, flattering outfit! We welcome seasoned and novice vintage collectors.”

Hoboken NJDespite the war on lunch trucks city officials (who own traditional restaurants) launched recently in Hoboken – that is not stopping Aroy-D, the Thai Elephant Truck from getting ready to excite the Mile Square with tasty ethnic flavor.
Aroy-D means “very yummy,” and Owner / Head Chef Pupay Hepner is hoping to arrive in Hoboken sometime in the second half of March.
Fans are leaving positive comments about Aroy-D, which is a very good sign!
Good news is – that they already have their approved Hoboken Health Permit – so about the only thing that will prevent great success for the Thai Elephant Truck is sabotage and organized attacks from those that hate capitalism. Let’s hope the city backs off entrepreneurs and allows delicious and affordable food into Hoboken.

As the thousands of regular customers the Hoboken Farmboy saw each month already know – the “health food” options in the Mile Square are dwindling!
So besides asking what should occupy the space at 127 Washington Street next – what does Hoboken need in general?
