Hsu's design is stunning. Also peaking in the Foreign Correspondents build out, they have some fun murals on the wall. I hope it is more accessible in terms of an easy place to get in and out for a weeknight dinner without blowing out your budget for the week. Hunky Dory and Bernadine's definitely look to be very pricey, which is understandable given the cash they put down on building out from the ground up. But Foreign Correspondents is going in an existing space. Hopefully that will allow them to have a more moderately priced menu. Lee's Fried Chicken and Donuts is supposed to be doing a soft opening in the next few weeks. 8 Row Flint looks to be close to completing its build out but no word on an opening schedule. Southern Goods, Ka Sushi and Black and White are all up and running.

Town in City's tap room is now open Wed-Sun. Southern Goods is having a soft opening this weekend with limited hours (looks like mostly barbcue for lunch) Ka Sushi and Black and White are built out, staffing up and should be open before the end of the month. Build outs are well underway at the Revival ice house concept, the Treadsack trio (Foreign Correspondents, Bernadine's and Hunky Dory) and Lee's Fried Chicken and Donuts. Alabama Furniture is getting the boot to make way for the new Braun development that looks to have Bernie's Burger Bus as a tenant.

Hugs and Donuts completed a soft opening and will finally have their grand opening soon. It is impressive to look at the list of restaurants currently underway in the Heights: Southern Goods Hunky Dory Foreign Correspondents Bernadine's Ka Sushi Pho Binh Ollie's Fried Chicken Black and White Revival Ice House/Taco Stand Cane Russo And if you stretch the boundaries a bit you can add the Indian place opening at the old Mozelle's location.
