"I'm told a new higher-end vegan restaurant called Jupiter Supper Club will be located at 718 Congress Avenue (in the former Townsend cocktail bar), though no projected opening timeline has been announced. Its website describes the concept as offering "maximalist vegan luxury," and I expect finer-dining food and service along with cocktails, beer, and wine. The restaurant is backed by co-founders and co-owners Bill Perkins and Lara Perkins, with Austin company Pravo Construction working on the remodel, and it will occupy the Townsend-Thompson building, which the text notes dates back to 187." - Nadia Chaudhury
