Former Gigi's server and assistant manager at OTC David Foulquier is opening up his own restaurant at 1035 N. Miami Ave in the space that used to house neMesis Urban Bistro. Dubbed Fooq's, the eatery and its moniker " is inspired by the nickname given to Foulquier's family home growing up, known amongst friends as a staple meeting place with an open-door policy," per a release. As for the food, it's "farm-to-table, international feel-good cuisine" with an "eclectically-curated menu of homemade dishes."
The young restaurateur, who has spent the better part of his 25 years traveling the world and working abroad, earned his chops under Michelin-starred chefs such as Daniel Boulud and Jean Georges.
