Mo Gridder's BBQ has announced a second outpost, in the Belmont section of the Bronx, a few steps from Arthur Avenue at 632 East 186th St. At the original Hunt's Point pitstop, in the parking lot of an auto center, $34.95 gets you an oil change and a checkup for your car, and a ribs platter for you. Expect good chow, but not quite the same full service, at the new location — it's the former home of Roberto's, which now dishes family-style Italian standards at No. 603.

Great news for those of us without cars! I used to volunteer at the City Harvest food bank at Hunts Point, and if you caught the bus as you got off the 6 train, it was more or less fine. But one time my wife and I had to hike along the shoulder of a disgusting highway with bombed-out cars and garbage strewn everywhere in the dirty snow. Plus there were still crackheads everywhere.
