Soho, to go

As I was checking in with some stores for my Saturday story on last-minute Christmas shopping, I got an update from Stacy Higgins.
I’ve worked with the owner of Soho East in Dobbs Ferry a few times over the years, most memorably when she created some really lovely holiday tabletops for us a few years ago.
Anyway, she had expanded into a second shop in Irvington a little over a year ago but told me she had to close up.
Turns out the cozy shop that was carved out of the rooms of a Victorian house had to end its run when the owner reclaimed the space for its original use.
Oh well.
Higgins, though, didn’t abandon Irvington — she’s now offering “Soho East Gifts To Go,” a selection of pre-wrapped gifts at the new Black Cat Cafe.
I gave a quick call there, and they tell me they were happy to carry Higgins’ line, as she’s so well-known in the community.
So, if you’re in Irvington, you can still shop (think platters, baskets, candles and other home-themed goods) from Higgins — and enjoy a bite at the cafe, at 45 Main St., at the same time.
Of course, you can always stop by the original Soho East, at 63 Main St. in Dobbs Ferry. Call 914-693-7296.
