Last month, Josef Centeno took a well-deserved slot in Bon Appetit’s “Hot Ten New Restaurants” list, and since he’s good at winning things he’s won before, maybe he can do it again with his forthcoming Bar Amá. L.A. Downtown News reports that the Texan chef’s Mex-inspired menu is set to be unveiled in the former Fourth Street stead of Urban Noodle on December 15. The opening was pushed back from a November debut over construction delays, and knowing the chef’s DIY leanings, he’s probably building it all by his own hand. Expect the chef’s take on grilled meats, including kid, along with charred salsas, Mexican beers, mescal, and tequila. Can’t wait to see what arrives at 118 W. Fourth St. [LADN; GS]
