Hoorah for Kurah?

It seems like yesterday that Alain's (1355 S. Michigan) suddenly closed on us.  Well that was in late October and now we're hearing and seeing that Kurah, a Mediterranean bar and grill might be opening up at this spot.

The news came from our message board and recently a poster noted that a liquor license on the city of Chicago website has been granted to:

Legal Name

Jadamo Corp.

Kurah

1355 S Michigan Ave , Floor:1

So there you have it, something new appears to be coming to the Northeast corner of 14th and Michigan.  If it is indeed some Mediterranean we will be happy.  Diverse options are what our neighborhood needs and falafel sounds really good right now!

Does anyone have additional information or thoughts on a Mediterranean place coming to this corner?
