I stopped in the other day and the space looks amazing! Yusef was hoping to be open by tomorrow, but I hadn't heard if that's official. He may have a few more final details to wrap up, but it sounds like he's ready to be open any minute now. ;)

A loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou. Now add artisan cheeses and gourmet cured meats, and you have the core menu offered by Mouton, which is expected to open sometime next week in the former Ohio Art League space at 954 N. High St.
Owner Yusef Riazi is betting that Columbus palates will be won over with Mouton's combination of artisan foods paired with light and bright European wines.
"It's not tapas or appetizers," Riazi said. "This is a very specific vision that revolves around beautiful breads, cheeses and cured meats.
"Anywhere you go in Europe, this is how people eat," he said. "They sit down with meat, bread, cheese and a carafe of wine."
Some of the meats - which include pancetta, prosciutto, and salami - will come from gourmet producers such as Fra'Mani in Berkeley, Calif., and La Quercia in Norwalk, Iowa. Selections from Niman Ranch of Alameda, Calif., which supplies natural meats to Chipotle, probably will be on the menu as well.
The cheese will come from closer to home.
"There will always be an Ohio cheese on the menu," Riazi said. As for the rest, "I'm drawing a line across Wisconsin, and all of the cheese will come from east of there, all the way over to Vermont. They're doing wonderful cheeses in this area."
The bread will be made by a local baker using fresh, seasonal ingredients, and the menu will grow and change in response to customer feedback.Posted 1 year ago # -
Just read the comments about the story and some people think of that area as 'sketchy' and that this place will be in the 'Obit file' within a few months! LOL!

I know it was only scheduled to open on Tuesday but has anyone been yet? Is it open? If so, I am hoping to walk down tonight.

I'm so glad CU & threads like this exist to remind me of such things. Totally forgot. Think I may try to go by this week.

Will they be open tomorrow morning too? I'd looooove some good coffee, but I work in stupid Chillicothe, so I can't play on weekday mornings. Boooo.

What time do they open? If before 7:30 you can count on me as a regular? Would really like some Cap't Cream Cheese Bagels too? Really lookin' forward to this and plan on stopping by tonight. The place looks great.
