As we informed you earlier this week, our favorite downtown restaurant Miss Lily’s held a little party Monday night to celebrate the launch of its new, next-door takeout spot/juice bar/art gallery Miss Lily’s Variety. Inaugurating the space in proper fashion, Jimmy Cliff performed an intimate, Storytellers-like acoustic show, hosted by radio personality Pat McKay (and broadcast over her Sirius Satellie Radio show) and attended by names like Salman Rushdie (Harder They Come meets Satanic Verses Inna Miss Lily’s!)
