No knead to fear: Couple to open new place

The team that brought Trattoria LaTavola to life in Powell in 1999 — only to watch it die in Dublin in February — is ready to get back in the kitchen. Rick and Krista Lopez plan to open Knead, their new restaurant, at 505 N. High St. before February.

I’m glad to see that space is going to be filled again, hopefully this will be more permanent.

My wife worked for Rick and Krista at LaTavola after she transplanted herself here from Chicago. They are great people and deserve a successful downtown venture. I look forward to visiting.

Is this going into the Benevolence space or that which is across from the convention center as a former sushi spot?

The article says that it’s the former Zen Sushi space.
