We Have Noodles Will Open Its First Brick And Mortar At Sunset Junction
It's out with the old, in with the new at the Sunset Junction stretch in Silver Lake. According to Eater LA, Berlin Currywurst, which arrived at the corner of Sunset and Hyperion in 2011, has closed, and Smorgasburg LA-favorite We Have Noodles will be replacing them.
We Have Noodles has been teasing about "something" big on their social media for weeks now:
The official opening date for the shop is unclear, though you can expect it to come this summer.
Support for LAist comes from
Chef Darren Sayphraraj, who helms the shop, is an L.A. native who spent time cooking in New York kitchens like The Nomad and The Modern before returning to L.A. and bringing his noodle concept to Smorgasburg LA and Feastly pop-ups. Sayphraraj was nominated for Zagat's 30 Under 30 in 2016.
LAist reached out to We Have Noodles, but did not hear back by time of publication.
We Have Noodles will be located at 3827 West Sunset Boulevard in Silver Lake.
As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
