Jordan Stein, owner of Husk: New American Tacos in Collinsville, is smiling a lot these days.
On Sunday, Feb. 20, Stein got married, and on Sunday, Feb. 27, Husk was the subject of The New York Times’ “Quick Bite” feature by Christopher Brooks.
Brooks wrote that Husk “lives up to its New American label by putting a fresh spin” on its tacos.
“To be recognized by The New York Times on Oscar night is like winning an Oscar,” Stein said.
“I got married and recognized in The New York Times. That’s the best week of my life.”
Stein, who opened Husk at 105 Main Street late last August, is kicking around an idea for outdoor seating as he approaches his first full summer at the location.
There’s work to be done before it can become a reality, but Stein would like to put “five or six” picnic-style tables in front of Husk and along the west side of the building, between Husk and the back of the old Collins Co. office building located at the corner of Front and Main streets.
“I’d like to create an outdoor space not only for me, but where anyone could sit down and eat,” Stein said, “whether it’s something they brought or something they bought from me or somebody else.”
