Actor Heath Ledger's Brooklyn Bar Opens

Heath Ledger 's bar, Five Leaves, in the Brooklyn borough of New York City is set to open on Wednesday, almost eight months after the actor's untimely death. "It's all meant to be a super casual California- and Australia-tinged cafe, coffeehouse and oyster bar, with greenmarket snacks," a critic for UrbanDaddy.com wrote. With steel light fixtures and "wire concoctions that seem right out of a lab," Five Leaves resembles "a bar that Thomas Edison might have built for his buddies," according to the review. The door to the bar's bathroom is a "massive, '20s-era boiler room door." On the bar's menu? Sliced radishes on toast with Evans Farmhouse butter. See photos of other stars' restaurants . Ledger, who financially backed the bar, died at age 28 of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs in January. Ledger's ex Michelle Williams lives with their 2-year-old daughter Matilda in Brooklyn. See a photo retrospective of Heath Ledger's life . (link)
