Einat Admony, chef-owner of Balaboosta, Bar Bolonat, Taim and the soon-to-open Combina.
Foodies, mark your iCals: Chef and her husband and business partner Stefan Nafziger have set November 14 as the opening date for Combina, their new West Village Sephardic-tapas spot.
Molly Breidenthal, who is executive chef at Admony’s Bar Bolonat, will also be executive chef at the new eatery.
As the Forward reported last month, Combina’s menu will salute Tel Aviv and Barcelona with fab-sounding small plates like salted-cod donuts with aioli, goat belly with harissa and romesco and skewered haloumi à la plancha with za’atar chimichurri.
330 West Broadway, at Grand St., no phone or web site.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
That’s why I’m paying it Forward, by matching $36,000 of reader gifts. It’s an investment in the Forward’s newsroom, to continue telling the American Jewish story with truth and independence.
