Jon Shook shot down a report from earlier today that the Animal duo are in possible talks to open a deli in New York City.

“No. We heard the story and had a laugh about it,” said Shook. He went on to add that they have no immediate plans of any kind to open a restaurant in New York. For the time being, it sounds like we get to keep the two of them all to ourselves.

Animal, 435 N. Fairfax Ave., L.A., (323) 782-9225.
