So I’m cruising down W Lovers this morning and I see chef Nick Badovinus standing in front his soon-to-open restaurant, Neighborhood Services. Yow. Zah. Opening a restaurant sure takes its toll on a body–Badovinus has aged ten years. Lordly, he looks at least 21. Anywhoo, he was crazy busy but he took me on a quick walk through and I snapped a couple of pictures. The crew is about “90 percent finished” and the final details are coming into place. The light fixtures are up, the bar is in, and the carpenters were installing the high-backed, sexy black booths while I was there. Badovinus is talking two weeks until opening, but watch SideDish for details.
