The NAHA Team Carrie Nahabedian and cousin Michael Nahabedian opened NAHA, in the space that formerly housed Chicago's distinguished Gordon restaurant. Naha offers a seasonal American menu with influences of the Mediterranean, and effortlessly blends the culinary, design and management talents of the cousins Nahabedian. "This restaurant is the culmination of many dreams," says Michael Nahabedian. "Carrie and I are very tight and always talked of a project where we could merge our life experiences. And with my brother Tom an established architect in California, it seemed only natural for us to venture forth with a restaurant project."
