Chef Randy Zweiban, the ceviche king of Nacional 27, is set to open “Province” in September at 161 N. Jefferson St. The new concept is described as:

A new American restaurant influenced by the modern, evolving cuisines of South America and Spain. Housed in a certified green building, Province will incorporate green building materials, recycled design materials, low-voltage lighting and Energy Star equipment. Sustainable practices will be followed in the kitchen, from an aggressive recycling program to a composting partnership with a city farm.

Sample dishes from the proposed menu:

House-smoked sable ceviche with Hawaiian papaya $7

House-cured anchovies with celery, Parmesan, arbequena olives $7

Prawn and bay scallop “paella” with saffron and roasted peppers $19

Shrimp and organic grits with manchego cheese $9 (pictured below)
