Bix Engels: Let's Eat!

      Will the bright lights, big city lure newly-minted media star Eve Aronoff away from our town? Nah. When I interviewed her in connection with a review of eve in the September issue of the Observer, I asked Aronoff, who is ambitious, if she had her eye on opening a place in Chicago, as reports published last year suggested. She laughed. “I have no plans on leaving Ann Arbor,” she said. Chicago is close enough, that it might just be feasible; she could keep an eye on a restaurant there as well as on eve. But, no, actually, her next project will likely be somewhere in Ann Arbor. She’s really into Cuban-Latino flavors now, she says, and she’d like to do something in that direction, very informal, high quality—and close by.
