Long-running Marigny restaurant La Peniche will close Tuesday (March 25). Kappa Horn, who owns and operates the Uptown diner Slim Goodies (3322 Magazine St.), bought the restaurant. After about three weeks of renovations and updates, she'll reopen the place as Horn's
"We'll pull up that old grandma carpet," Horn said. "It needs someone to love it again."
To start the day, Horn's will offer "breakfast by Slim Goodies." That Uptown diner specializes in classic American breakfast fare.
For lunch and dinner, Horn has hired Greg Fonseca, who was the executive chef at Booty's Street Food until earlier this month.
"The menu will be New Orleans comfort food with a little something beyond," Fonseca said. "A little something that you don't get everywhere. Elevated, if you will."
Fonseca was still finalizing the menu, but he plans to offer some items, like the festival favorite crawfish bread, that aren't often seen on local menus.
Although Fonseca hopes Horn's will be a destination for New Orleans diners, he said that prices will be modest enough to encourage nearby residents to return frequently.
"You want to be able to take care of your neighbors," he said.
Horn's will be located at 1940 Dauphine St., New Orleans.
