It’s been a long, hard road for EN, but the Nigerian restaurant finally opened its doors last week after a couple of years of delays. (We some some folks going in and out, though we’ve been unable to confirm if food is actually being served yet.) The slow timeline was due in large part to a complete disregard for Landmarks regulations upfront; after initially installing large plate glass windows with metal framing, the owner had to start from scratch with a new design and work within the LPC guidelines. Regardless, we’re happy to see all that’s in the past now and hope the new spot does well.
