Leon Freilich sent this story from the New York Sun about a new restaurant going into the space that was Black Pearl on Union Street.

A TOUCH OF THE LOCAL The Park Slope space that used to be Black Pearl is slated to reopen at the end of next week as a modern American restaurant and wine bar called Bussaco (833 Union St., between Sixth and Seventh avenues, Brooklyn, 718-857-8828).

Former Gotham Bar & Grill general manager Scott Carney is in charge of the place, and he is also the wine sommelier. Brooklyn suppliers will be providing coffee, beer, and such interior touches as the communal table, made out of a first-growth fallen oak from Prospect Park.
The chef, Matthew Schaefer, is local, too, as he lives in nearby Cobble Hill. His résumé includes stints in Manhattan at Aquavit, JUdson Grill, and Le Bernardin.

Menu offerings will include mini-lobster rolls, clam pizza, veal cheek pot pie, and an oyster pan roast, as well as more refined items such as oven roasted wild striped bass with manila clams. Deborah Snyder, formerly of Lever House, has been brought on as pastry chef.
