Very continental

Chef Jean Michel Sakouhi brought traditional French cuisine to Oak Cliff when his new restaurant opened last month. Bouchon 1314 took a corner space in the 1922 Tudor revival building formerly known as Cannon’s Village, at 1314 W. Davis. The restaurant’s wine list offers 250 bottles, which are available for takeout or, for a 20 percent markup over retail, to sip with dinner. Duck confit, escargot, chateaubriand for two, rack of lamb, croque-monsieur and onion soup are on the menu, along with seafood dishes, salads and other steaks. The restaurant seats about 70 and does not take reservations. Bouchon 1314 will also offer a few specialty groceries, including olive oil and mustard.

Whisk Crêpes Cafe at Sylvan Thirty, opened recently. The 624-square-foot restaurant, next door to Ten Ramen, seats about 20 diners. Says the Paris-born owner Julien Eelsen, “I hope my cafe will give our customers the chance to experience what it’s like to be in Paris, even if for just a brief, sweet or savory moment.”

Couture closure

The high-end vintage clothing store that operated in Oak Cliff for about 13 years has closed. Zola’s Every Day Vintage relocated early this year from its longtime spot in the Bishop Arts District to a newly renovated space on West Davis at Edgefield. Owner Annette Daffron says an accident in August caused her to close the store for almost a month, and she was unable to reopen. Daffron says she is looking for a space to continue selling “vintage” sodas. She says she has no plans to build up another brick-andmortar clothing shop, but she continues to sell clothing and other items on Etsy.

First Zola’s, now Zoli’s

Please, no one name your Oak Cliff business Zolo’s. Zoli’s NY Pizza announced recently that it will close as soon as this spring, in advance of developer Alamo Manhattan’s plans to bulldoze the block in favor of upscale apartments and retail. Zoli’s, from Cane Rosso owner Jay Jerrier, was the New Yorkstyle pizza place for everyone who thinks Cane Rosso’s Neapolitan-style pizza is too doughy in the middle. Jerrier says he plans to reopen Zoli’s elsewhere, but probably not in Oak Cliff.
