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. One of them served moderately healthy bowls, and the other one didn’t. This said, and speaking as a resident of New Albany, these concepts didn’t seem out of line with […]

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.
