I’ve been watching the space at 115 Santa Monica Blvd. in Downtown Santa Monica for a while. Early last year, the Yelp-eviscerated Gate of India pulled up stakes and the windows were papered over. Finally, an ABC application taped to the front informs us that something called Tumbi Bar and Restaurant will soon be moving in. I can’t find out much information on the new eatery, but I’ll keep watching…
I had dinner last night in Beverly Hills and Chef Sanjay said he would be there at Tumbi starting April to “recreate” the sexy and exotic Tantra of Silverlake. Good for him.
