Cafe Esencia, a mediterranean churro café inspired by the rich food culture of La Convivencia in Ridgewood, will launch weekend dinner service, featuring tapas and an affordable selection of natural wines. The cafe, which opened in May 2018, has developed a following for its churros and coffee program, but the dinner program allows them to reach regulars and new faces, the people who work in Manhattan and arrive back in Ridgewood after their usual 5 p.m. closing time.
