UWS Fatty Crab Is Scurrying Away; Red Farm to Slide In

Restaurateur Ed Schoenfeld and chef Joe Ng opened Red Farm last summer.  Pete Wells gave it two stars to in March.  In April, Ed Schoenfeld told Paper Magazine he's taking over the laundromat space under Red Farm, providing more space for guests to dine at the wildly popular Chinese joint on 529 Hudson Street.  His plans are for a bar and communal table and will open sometime this fall.

The Off the Menu column in today's Dining & Wine section of the Times reveals Red Farm is undergoing another expansion.  Florence Fabricant reports, "Ed Schoenfeld and Joe Ng plan a branch of Red Farm, their West Village Chinese restaurant, to open in the fall, replacing Fatty Crab on the Upper West Side, which remains open for the time being."  The space in question is 2170 Broadway, between 76th and 77th Streets.
