When Nish Nush‘s Eyal Hen said he was opening a restaurant in the old Mimi’s Café space at the southeast corner of Church and Reade, he didn’t say (until now) that he was a partner in the venture, and that it would be the second, first Manhattan outpost of Aimee Follette’s Park Slope favorite Sun in Bloom. The restaurant emphasizes healthfulness, serving gluten-free, vegan, and raw food. Reading the menu can be a trip: “Bella Divine Salad: Sultry smooth avocado, dulse and house made raw sauerkraut tossed in a kale salad massaged in LIVE sesame ginger dressing. Add quinoa $3. Spiced pumpkin seeds $2. In a sprouted wheat wrap $1.” The word is that the new location will be like the Brooklyn one, but with no (or limited) seating. Here are some photos of the Brooklyn restaurant, along with its menu and some photos of its food (from its Facebook page).

The forecast is that it’ll open in January.
