Read an Acadiana Business Article about Nidal Balbeisi & Trynd
When entrepreneur Nidal Balbesi started expanding his restaurant empire downtown, he always had his eye on the 1916 Masonic Lodge building on Vermilion Street next door to his cantina and grill, Agave. "It is one of the most beautiful buildings in Lafayette," he says. "I have always admired that building." At the time, Stan Lerille owned the former lodge, opening a casual eatery and young adult nightclub, Stan's. But, Lerille was growing weary of the nightclub business, and started discreetly looking for a buyer. In December 2009 Balbesi learned of Lerille's interest in selling the historic twostory building. "It was one of those spontaneous things," Balbesi says. "Stan was in the market to sell, and we had a friend who asked me if I would like to buy it. I told him, 'I would love to! In a heartbeat!'"
