Two New Businesses Hit Ave. U, E. 19th St.

After sitting empty for nine months, the former Chock Full o’Nuts location on Ave. U between East 19th Street and Ocean Avenue is occupied again. Healthalicious Food opened up a little more than a week ago selling, you guessed it, health food. Unlike Forces of Nature on Sheepshead Bay Rd., Healthalicious Food  is a counter-service restaurant serving healthy diner-style cooked foods. So far, reviews have been good.

Meanwhile, across the street, the former florist on the corner of East 19th and Ave. U has given way to Central Hair Salon, which may just be the six-billionth stylist in Sheepshead Bay.
