We already showed you the interior, and the opening menu, and now after a few inspection delays, 1601 Bar & Kitchen (1601 Howard Street at 12th) is set to open this week. They’re not saying which day, exactly. But almost definitely before the weekend. We’re 95% sure. And you should check out chef Brian Fernando’s Sri Lankan-inflected food, because it’s damned interesting, and seems well executed, from what we’ve seen so far. That is all.
