MID-CITY— Urban Daddy drops THE BOMB today. Short Order, one of the most hotly anticipated restaurants of the year, opens November 18 at 5PM. For those living under a rock, this is the seasonal burger concept developed by the late Amy Pressman and partner Nancy Silverton (Mozza). [Urban Daddy]

MID-CITY— Remember that skinny little sliver of a restaurant space next to Tinga on La Brea owned by George Abou-Daoud (Mercantile, The Bowery)? Well, he has sold the space to Tinga owner Jerry Baker for future Tina expansion, though Baker says growing next door is "more of a hope." [EaterWire]

K-TOWN— @Koreatown notices, via Twitter, that Cafe Metro on Wilshire has shuttered. That's all. [Twitter]

VENICE— Slight delays for Chocovivo's new chocolate bar on Abbot Kinney. The soft launch has been pushed back to 11-11-11, from 11AM to 6PM or 7PM (management is still deciding). [EaterWire]
