Hayati, a Mediterranean restaurant from restaurateur Kaïs Bouzidi, is set to open in the former Boulettes Larder space by the summer of 2026, according to a news release. Bouzidi is the brains behind nearby restaurants Sens, Barcha and Bon Delire. While the restaurant concept is "still in development," Bouzidi has signed a lease for the famed Suite 48, the news release said.
The bakery and cafe comes from the team, so it's no surprise that everything here is a hit. Right now there's a four-item per person limit, so prioritize the laminated vanilla-passion fruit cube, which pulls apart like cotton candy to reveal white chocolate-vanilla crémeux and passion fruit, and the roasted banana-pecan croissant, bursting with praline filling that teeters on the edge of too sweet.
