The space at 2507 Main St. in Santa Monica has been a bit of a mystery for the last few years.  Once the home of Novel Cafe, the space has been gutted with intermittent construction.  Readers assured me it was either going to be a restaurant, or bar, or something, but I could never verify anything… until now.  A sign recently went up over the door announcing the arrival of Rabano Handcrafted Food & Drinks.  Rabano has a location in Hermosa Beach and has a “fresh and healthy” menu of salads, bowls, and sandwiches that utilizes local ingredients and focuses on the environment.
