Nova Express Cafe
From Enigma Wiki
(Redirected from Nova Express)
A science-fiction themed cafe/restaurant that was located in mid-city Los Angeles on Fairfax Ave. across the street from Canter's Deli. It closed on short notice, Weds. March 5th, apparently, as rumor has it, from a dramatically escalated rent increase, echoing the departure of other interesting establishments in Los Angeles as commercial rents escalate.
Site of some of the festivities for Enigmaversary II, Nova Express was not only a cool place to visit, but had excellent food as well, including the infamous "Mighty Cthulhu Revival Shake".
A farewell e-mail was sent out:
From: info@novaexpresscafe.com [1] Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2008 6:14 PM Subject: Thanks and Goodbye! Thanks and Goodbye! The Nova Express Cafe has existed to make the claim that a unique artistic cafe is an important part of the cultural ecology of the modern urban landscape. Essentially, Nova Express Cafe is an art project designed to explore the parameters of how a kind of art, based on the importance of community and generally motivated by an idea of fun, can function in society. However, The Nova Express Cafe has existed outside the normal channels of either capital investment or art world patronage and now faces severe economic difficulties. The cafe will be closing Wednesday, March 5. The last fifteen years have been a great romantic adventure!
