The restaurant, run by Orna Agmon and Ella Schein, became one of a black of a furious immature city that never sleeps in a 1990s, partial of a leftish, artistic “State of Sheinkin” that now seems totally extinct.
The final spike in a coffin of that street’s special enlightenment comes after a closure of a series of other cafes in a area over a final dual years, such as Café Luntz, Café Noah, Ahad Ha’am, Café Tamar and others. Another quintessential area café that also sealed recently was Bacho.
