"Built as a two-story tropical oasis soaked in beach cocktails, I learned the Royal Tot—ETA Group's latest project from the folks behind urban golf club Stroke—opens Friday, January 21 at 933 Louise Avenue in Charlotte’s Belmont neighborhood. CEO Ashleigh Gadd told me, "As soon as you arrive, you will feel as though you are somewhere else." Claiming the largest rum collection in Charlotte, the Royal Tot features over 100 different types of rum, and beverage director Larry Suggs has created a menu of almost two dozen lush cocktails, including Queen’s Park Swizzle, Sally Sells Seashells, Frozen Fog, and 1,610 Miles From Home. It will be open Wednesday through Sunday starting at 5 p.m." - Erin Perkins
