German/Eastern European restaurant Heimat House closed its doors last weekend. Owner Carri Phillis told the Albuquerque Journal that its location (6910 Montgomery NE) and its unfamiliar menu might have played a role in its demise.

She referred to Adieux as a “gastropub,” which sounds like something you’d hear in a prognosis.

The proposal was filed by the New Mexico Department of Agriculture and is currently open for public comment.
