New In-N-Out Burger Restaurant to Open in Unexpected California Location

New York City, NY

Manhattan, NY

Bánh, an Upper West Side Vietnamese restaurant that opened in 2021 to much anticipation, is opening a follow-up near Union Square: Bánh Anh Em, set to open this winter, is located at 99 Third Avenue, near East 13th Street. Owners Nhu Ton and John Nguyen tell Eater they wanted a location downtown for their customers. The much larger dining room will emphasize making its banh mi and rice noodles from scratch. When the duo first opened Bánh, they were already known for Cơm Tấm Ninh Kiều, their Bronx Vietnamese restaurant reviewed by the New York Times — but as of the beginning of 2024, they sold their ownership rights and focused on expanding the Bánh name.

There are some days where nothing satisfies quite like a big warm bowl of pasta. With just-made pappardelle noodles that lend a satisfying foundation to spiced ground veal in red sauce or thin strands of white wine-drenched linguine that swirls around bites of scallop and prawn, the right bowl of pasta can feel like a warm hug — especially when paired with a glass of wine and amiable company. Las Vegas has no shortage of excellent Italian cooking — and it is often at its best when highlighting al dente noodles, aged cheeses, and scratch-made sauce. Dig into some of the most comforting bowls in Las Vegas.

Dianne de Guzman is a deputy editor at Eater SF writing about Bay Area restaurant and bar trends, upcoming openings, and pop-ups. Japanese restaurant favorite Kuma Nori is no longer. In a surprise message on Instagram, owners Chad and Monica Kaneshiro shared that the restaurant’s final night of service was Saturday, August 24. Thanking guests and regulars, the message reads in part, “We didn’t take the decision to close lightly, however we have come to the conclusion that the current space is not financially sustainable for us. ... Although it was only for a moment, we hope we were able to show not only our vision of Japanese comfort food, but most importantly, what it can become.”

Located in the heart of Koreatown, Soot Bull Jip may seem, at first glance, like an average Korean barbecue restaurant, complete with sizzling cuts of meat on tabletop grills, gusts of smoke-filled air, and the familiar clinks of soju glasses. But look closer, and there is something more old-school and primal here — specifically, the grill pits placed at the center of tables filled with hardwood charcoal.
