Workers have been gutting Euzkadi, the now-closed restaurant at 108 E. Fourth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue this past week…
… including removing the Euzkadi mosaic…
We're not sure exactly when Euzkadi closed. People seemed to like the tapas … which New York magazine called "traditional and boldly flavored Basque cuisine."
As for what's next … a Japanese restaurant called Benemon is expected to open here later next month. According to the application (PDF!) for a new liquor license at the CB3 website, Benemon will serve "Japanese rice bowls with small plates." Benemon is expected be open noon to midnight seven days a week.
