Block 5, preview

If you were lucky, this past Saturday night you were at Block Five on Green St in Worcester MA for their soft-opening/tasting party. I unfortunately was not so lucky and spent the weekend stuck in a dirty house with 8 dirty guys drinking like fish.
Most of you have probably heard about Block 5 by now, located in the original Sir Morgans Cove, most recently known as Duke's. The place has been completely overhauled and renovated over the course of the last 8 months by three very talented, very creative, local business men. I stopped down yesterday to check in on the grand opening, set for this weekend, and thought you might like a sneak peak.

Folks, knowing these guys and knowing their business model, I can assure you the bar will be raised on local dining to a level unseen in this area. Good stuff, see you there this weekend.

Interesting decor, but I'm not going near those barstools. My back hurts just looking at them.

Looks great. Seriously. But will anyone be able to afford drinking or eating there aside from the well-to-do?

I dont think they are shooting for the McDonalds crowd D.
But having seen the menu I think you should be all set.
