I need the info on a bar & reataurant that have either gone under over
the past month or two.
How long was it ope for?
When did it close?

One of each would be fine and it must have had bar service.

Sorry I am in a coma today.

I need the name of a restaurant and bar that have closed it's doors
over the last month or two.
The bar & restaurant should have been located in NYC.

I have found a New York City restaurant, which contained a bar, and
which closed in the past month or two.

Is that all you need?  Or do you also need another restaurant (without
a bar) that closed in the past month or two?  (If you do, then I have
found a likely candidate; except that I don't know exactly when it
closed.  I have contacted the email address for the former restaurant
to see if I can learn when it closed.)

Anything you find should have a bar.
That's the focus. And if you can give 
me as much info as you can on them.

Thanks

Hello mi2mia,

Francesco at Mix took that name in April 2005, after having opened as
Mix in New York nineteen months before (September 2003).  The
establishment included a bar.  It closed on August 13, 2005.
