Bha! Bha! is back! After taking a six-month hiatus that began with the pandemic lockdown in March, Bha! Bha! Persian Bistro reopens Thursday night on Fifth Avenue South in downtown Naples. “We are reopening refreshed and enlivened with new management and an updated menu, including some old favorites returning,” says Chef Michael Mir, an Iran native who has owned and operated Bha! Bha! for more than 20 years. One of the most popular dishes returning to the menu is a heart-warming old favorite called  Garlic Eggplant Chicken, a classic that showcases the local restaurant’s aromatic Persian cuisine. The rebooted restaurant will be open later in the evening to give patrons more time to enjoy its long-celebrated lamb shanks and eggplant dishes. Bha! Bha!, 865 Fifth Ave. S., will be open 5 to 10 p.m. every day. For more information, call 239-594-5557 or go to Facebook.com/BhaBhaPersianBistro.
