"Joaquin (Quino) Baca’s recently opened izakaya-style Bushwick restaurant Teo has suddenly closed, less than five months after it opened. Teo opened in late December right after Christmas in a petite 38-seat space at 321 Starr St., near Cypress Avenue. It marked the chef’s pivot back to Asian-inspired dishes like yaki onigiri and katsu-style fried chicken — the food Baca fell in love making as a Momofuku chef, working alongside David Chang at spots like Noodle Bar. The restaurant announced it would close this week on Instagram and on its website, though it didn’t state the reason behind the closure. Eater has reached out to Baca for more information." - Carla Vianna
