News: La Forchetta Opens in Spring 2012
Entrepreneur Hakan Ilhan owns a total of 21 successful
fast casual eateries and gourmet markets in the Washington area including Gelato
Dolce Vita in Georgetown, three Cafe Cantinas, three Einstein Bros. Bagels
shops, nine Pizza Autenticas, City Wok at Dulles and the National Airport Grill.
The Turkish native, who was educated in London before relocating to the USA in
1990, is now turning his sights to open a sleek, modern Italian restaurant in
his own neighborhood of Northwest DC, La Forchetta at 3201 New Mexico
Avenue, 20016. He engaged designer friend Matt Norris, of Norris Design in
Atlanta, to create a Ferrari-like interior, with vibrant colors, an exhibition
kitchen with seating for 20, and a pizza station with seating for 12 guests
along with an inviting 12-seat bar.
