She bounced back. Woodhouse has reopened Nadiya\u2019s Kitchen in East Chicago.
\u201cI noticed there wasn\u2019t a soul food restaurant in the area, so that\u2019s why I chose East Chicago,\u201d Woodhouse said at her grand opening Wednesday, November 6. \u201cI want the residents here to have some good soul food.\u201d
Nadiya\u2019s Kitchen is located at 4901 Alexander, in the Calumet neighborhood.
The grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony was hosted by East Chicago\u2019s Planning Department as a way to promote the city\u2019s new business. \u201cThis was once a busy commercial area full of restaurants and bars; hopefully this is the beginning of its resurgence. Thank you for investing in the city,\u201d said Marino Solario, interim director of Planning.
The restaurant offers dine-in, carry-out, and catering.
Nadiya\u2019s menu basics of chicken, beef and fish are recast in a variety of Alfredo dishes, wraps, egg rolls, and dinners. They also do wings, burgers and fries.
Their Philly Steak egg rolls are a must try. Put your orders in early because they will sell out. It\u2019s a good sign for the restaurant since it\u2019s only been open for a month.
Nadiya\u2019s is closed on Mondays. Tuesday through Friday, hours are 11am to 8pm. Saturday and Sunday, hours are 11am to 9pm. Call (219) 354-1031.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
