West Village old-timers may still associate the triangular space opposite Jackson Square Park with CafĂ© de Bruxelles, a stronghold of Belgian beers and moulesfrites. But more than two years ago, it was replaced by the French-themed Lyon, which has now been reconceived as Cole’s Greenwich Village. A few of the new partners also operate the Soho rooftop bar Jimmy, and as you might expect, they’ve amped up the cocktail program at Cole’s. They’ve also hired chef Daniel Eardley, a local-and-seasonal specialist late of Brooklyn’s Chestnut, to turn out dishes like grilled sardines with duck-fat potatoes, pork chop with white polenta, and plancha-crisped chicken
