The long-awaited Mouth of the South in the Old Market opened last Monday. It originally was expected to open in mid-January, but renovations took longer than expected.

Food news includes a new French-Asian bakery, Taco Tequila Tuesday tours, food classes, a cancer benefit and Coneflower among the plants.

The large menu includes items such as picadillo steak, potato enchiladas, al pastor quesadillas, a fried burria taco and numerous other entrees and appetizers.

The chicken at Church’s comes in both mild and spicy, bone-in and tenders. Combo and family meals are available. 

Entrepreneur Nick Bartholomew hopes to have the new B&G Tasty Foods open sometime in late summer, serving the same menu as the original. 

A “coming soon” sign is on a space at 7538 Dodge St., next to Charleston’s restaurant.

Koji, featuring sushi, salads and hot and cold plates, is in the former location of Swartz's Delicatessen. 

Every Thursday in Omaha Dines, we will feature a recommended snack from a metro-area business. This week's featured snack is Maya Swirl (tart with mousse filling and ganache) from Camille's Bakery.

If you want to see the cart before it departs, visit the restaurant near 156th and Pacific Streets between 5 and 9:30 this Thursday. 

Menu items include a wide variety of tacos, including barbacoa beef, fried chicken, alligator and jackfruit, plus bowls, salads, nachos and desserts.
