A tipster winks to us that if you’re in the nabe on Independence Day, you’ll get to be one of the first patrons of JTH Next Door. Not quite a soft-opening, the doors will be open and while you may not be able to enjoy the oysters quiiite yet, you’ll definitely be able to have a bev or two and get a nice eyeful of how efficiently and stylishly Tim and co. have appointed the space with brushed metal light fixtures, custom cocktail and communal tables of reclaimed wood with one-of-a-kinda wrought iron bases. Happy 4th, indeed!

Patricia Ageheim & Tarek Debira owers since April of Chez Moi (located at the space formerly known as La Mancha) wrote BHB to reassure our readers that La Mancha’s Atlantic Antic culinary stand-bys of grilled sardines and paella will survive the change of restaurant and nationality!

Writes Tarek:

As far as the menu that we are offering:
Before we even opened, we found a blog mentioning the fact that La mancha would be missed especially their Sardines at the Atlantic antic. After asking about the Atlantic antic to several of our regulars and neighbors, we quickly realized that The Sardines, Paella & chorizo were extremely popular to say the least, and that it was going on even before La Mancha. By the way we have lived in the neighborhood for almost 5 years now and are also big fans of the sardines.
After discussing menu options with our Chef Matthew Koffmann and our management team, we decided that we should keep the tradition going.

Our menu will be the same however, we are shipping our sardines from Portugal and are buying our chorizo from Esposito (http://www.espositosausage.com/). Chef Matt is very excited to bring his personal touch to the sardines and paella and our Pastry chef Sebastian will prepare Apple tartes for desserts. The goal is to provide well prepared quality product so that our guests and neighbors will enjoy this fun afternoon street festival.

We cater for the neighborhood and we care about our guests experience and their feedback so we can get better at what we do, and adjust to their needs.
