Horizons sets an end date

Rich Landau says Saturday, July 2 will be the final day of service at Horizons (611 S. Seventh St.), he and wife/partner Kate Jacoby's lauded vegan eatery off South. (We had the full backstory on the closure back in April.) Between then and now, Landau promises he'll cook both "classics from days gone by and some tastes of what is next." No official word on the couple's new restaurant just yet but they hope to announce more details sometime next week. Here's the rundown on that spot, from our April post:

That new vision will be birthed in the hugely hopping Midtown Village area — Landau says they've narrowed their search down to three spaces in the neighborhood, but are "very close to signing with one." It'll be a small, 50- to 60-seat liquor-licensed restaurant (no name yet) with a focus on small/medium plates, as opposed to the more traditional appetizer/entrée/dessert approach. It'll also mark a definite shift in cooking style for Landau, who's well-known for his elaborate treatments of proteins like tofu, seitan and tempeh — he wants to bring the focus back squarely on the great variety of vegetables available to chefs in the region."Beautiful, amazing vegetables are our passion and inspiration right now," says Landau, "and we want them to be centerstage."
