"Dustin Drankiewicz — the man who helped launch notable bars such as Moneygun, Pink Squirrel, and Deadbolt — has a new project set to open inside the former Paramount Room. The casual spot will emphasize Midwestern comfort food from chef Lamar Moore so expect burgers, smoked prime rib, cheese curds, fish fries, and other daily specials. The beverage side of the equation promises to offer about five signature cocktails, plenty of beer, and even cold-brew concoctions for those in need of a caffeine jolt. In addition, a basement bar called Chit Chat Lounge is also in the works." - Jeffy Mai
