Masa’s Long-Delayed Tribeca Restaurant Sees New Life — And More Intel

— Pour one out for the East Village location of Mimi’s Hummus. EV Grieve notes this morning that the 245 East 14th St. location of the excellent Israeli restaurant closed on Monday. Mimi’s, which has been in Ditmas Park for years, serves some of the city’s best hummus and shakshuka. Chef Mimi Kitani opened the outpost in October 2015, along with a stand in Urbanspace Vanderbilt. Both of the other locations remain open.
