Le Cochon Noir calls it quits

Le Cochon Noir (5070 Parkside Ave.), the barbecue-and-blues venue Jamal Parker opened in 2010, smoked its last rack of ribs yesterday. An excerpt from the closing announcement on LCN's Facebook:

Man, we really had a blast! Thanks... thanks again for believing in us and simply for being there. We're sure gonna miss the fun times we had together. Listen, do me a favor... keep in touch! Feel free to shoot us an email (info@lecochonnoir.com) should you get the urge to swing through and use the space with some friends for a private show, to throw a special event or some other occasion. We'd love to hang! Hey, we promise to do the same and keep you up to date on what we're getting in to.

About that: Parker says he'd love to use his competition smoker to launched a food cart-style barbecue operation in the city. "[It] could be coming soon if things pan out right," he says.
