Hooray for Lucky Dog!

Lucky Dog Books closed its West Davis shop at the end of March and is relocating. Its new store is expected to open soon at 911 W. Jefferson between Tyler and Polk. Co-working company the Common Desk is taking over the former site at 621 W. Davis. The 6,000-squarefoot space in Oak Cliff will be the second for Common Desk, which has its original location in Deep Ellum.

Ten ramen and a golden oven

Ten Ramen opened at Sylvan Thirty last month. The restaurant, from chef Teiichi Sakurai of Tei An, is tiny. The dining room is the size of a large hallway and there are no tables or seats. About 10 or 15 people can stand at the bar, right in front of the kitchen window, to be served. In other Sylvan Thirty news, Whisk Crepes installed an exterior sign and electrical work appears to be underway, although the floor hasn’t yet been poured. Cibo Divino is expected to open this month, offering a wide variety of wines, prepared meals, panini, coffee and Neapolitan pizza. Its pizza oven, ordered from Naples, has been installed and chef/owner Daniele Puleo had it tiled in gold. Puleo says he also is toying with the idea of offering a gold pizza. That is, pizza topped with gold flakes.

Kessler Park pierogi

Kessler Park Eating House, the new restaurant from Jonathon’s owners, Christine and Jonathon Erdeljac, opened on Beckley near Greenbriar last month. The menu features homemade pasta, pepperoni rolls, sandwiches and pierogi. There are many items on the bill of fare that sound interesting, but Polish dumplings are rare around these parts. These are handmade, and already are receiving raves from food critics.
