STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. After only a few months in existence, Wynwood Street Eats’ final day of service in Stapleton was in December as New York City restaurants shuttered dining rooms due to the pandemic.
But Mike LiDonni formally announced that the brunch-centric spot in Urby will be re-opening on May 5 at 2 p.m.
LiDonni said the delay to jump back into business happened at the mercy of other projects like District and The Pizza Parlor, both in Annadale.
‘Recipe for Disaster’: Taco Libre’s famous ‘Birizza’ taco pizza
Updated Mar 04, 2021;
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. Let me ask you two questions, Staten Island: Do you like tacos? And do you like pizza?
Of course you said yes to both, because those were stupid questions. But did you know that there’s a restaurant on the North Shore that combines the two into one outstanding, delicious creation?
The place is Taco Libre, located inside Wynwood at 24 Navy Pier Court in the Urby development. And the distinguished dish is called the “Birizza” a pizza made out of birria taco ingredients.
Chefs Joaquin Castillo and Nuh Duraku are co-owners of the taco joint, which proudly boasts that their recipes are “the tacos with the juice.” So I had to try and figure out what made their recipes so special.
