Pluk’d and Good Bowl were sister concepts that opened in February, 2025 at 2441 State St. in New Albany, the remodeled former Tucker’s American Favorites.

Seeing as I missed it the first time, let’s briefly rewind to the end of October, when Brew & Sip’s Okolona location at 2860 Packerland Way (nicknamed “The Pack”) closed up shop. The closing came with a vow to first reorganize, then continue. It’s all in a statement at the web site, which is reprinted […]

Amid the decline and fall of the Schnitzelburg family of AFs, admittedly dissimilar to the Romanovs, but what’s a guy to do on a Monday morning in November except muse historically over coffee, a familiar “face” is returning to the food and dining scene in Louisville. We’re richer for it. Eric Morris’s food service journey […]

Writing at Louisville Business First, Michael L. Jones rolls with the changes, diagramming the intricate playbook at the former Tim Tam Tavern in the Audubon neighborhood. The Dirty Bird could not surmount a difficult start, and it is no more (for now). Replacing fried chicken at 1022 Clarks Lane is retro pizza, with the revival […]

All the way back in 2012, Robin Garr answered my lingering question about DiFabio’s Casapela Italian Restaurant (Facebook), which opened in 2010 at 2311 Frankfort Ave. in Clifton. “Casapela.” Utter this word slowly, with Mediterranean rhythm, assonant and mellifluous, “Cah-sa-PEH-laaaah,” and it sounds as Italian as Tony Bennett crooning “Arrivederci, Roma.” But plug it into Google Translate […]

Although no formal announcement has been issued, I believe we can proceed under the assumption that Boomtown Kitchen and Boomtown Creamery, sister concepts in downtown New Albany, have concluded their runs. Today’s cover photo shows the Creamery space bereft of furnishings. Boomtown Kitchen began in 2019, and Boomtown’s Creamery followed in 2021, both at the retail […]
