College Park, Georgia, Restaurant and Lounge Nouveau Bar and Grill Is Opening a Second Location In Jonesboro, Georgia | Eater Atlanta

"Opening in July in the former Firehouse Museum on West Mill Street, this Chicago-themed second location brings the owner's comfort-food menu and lively weekend programming to downtown Jonesboro as part of a broader revitalization project. The menu emphasizes hearty items such as jerk wings, sticky fried ribs, four-cheese spinach dip and Windy City crab cakes, paired with boozy punches, frozen daiquiris and other cocktails. Regular events include Friday-night karaoke and celebrity-hosted Mimosa Jam brunches that have featured high-profile guests (including Kandi Burruss and 2 Chainz). Owner Ebony Austin positions the restaurant as an economic boost for the city and plans local philanthropic involvement, continuing community-focused efforts such as holiday turkey giveaways and student care-package donations." - Beth McKibben
