Medina's Turkish Kitchen is up and running now at 166 Second Ave. between 10th Street and 11th Street.

Back in December, we spotted a sign for a Korean restaurant opening in the space that was Dinah Hookah Lounge. Obviously those plans never materialized.

The address has been home to several businesses just in the 12-year lifespan of EVG, starting with a Dunkin' Donuts ... then the pizzeria Pomodora ... then three open-and-shut hookah places — Entrez Bar & Grill, Farfasha and Dinah.

The Dinah Hookah Lounge has apparently called it a night on 166 Second Ave. between 10th Street and 11th Street... Steven spotted a sign on the Mediterranean lounge's storefront noting a new Korean restaurant was coming soon...



This space has randomly been some kind of hookah place in the past five-bus years, including Entrez Bar & Grill then Farfasha then Dinah. Prior to all this hookah, the address welcomed the pizzeria Pomodora... and until early 2010, we had the double D here...
