El Huipil, RIP

Posted by Nina Lalli at 10:52 AM, March 27, 2007

It's sad but true. El Huipil, the friendly Red Hook pozole hangout, has closed its doors. We have no idea what happened to the Guerreran cantina, but we do know that a couple of dudes have already laid claim to the space, and plan to open another Mexican restaurant there. Who will do the cooking, we asked. "We're gonna get someone hot." Well, we certainly hope so, but it's hard to imagine it will be the delicious, cozy, charming spot it was for two years.

Sadly, I heard that the Red Hook ball-field's summer taquieras are on their way out too. I guess that means we're headed to Sunset Park for authentic Mexican food.
