The Southern Meat and Three Gets a Turkey and the Wolf Twist at New NOLA Restaurant | Eater New Orleans

"Set to open later this month at 7507 Maple Street, the latest offshoot from Turkey and the Wolf will add a modern touch to the Southern meat-and-three format in Uptown. Chef Mason Hereford and Nate Barfield are partnering on the counter-service concept centered on a long table with a daily rotation of mains — examples include buttermilk and hot sauce–marinated fried chicken, hamburger steak au poivre, and red beans and rice — alongside sides like miso green beans and garlic chile crisp–topped charred cabbage wedges. While the team won’t try to reinvent the meat-and-three, diners can expect distinctive Turkey and the Wolf twists, including pours of various spirits meant to be mixed at a soda fountain (a playful callback to Turkey and the Wolf’s beloved frozen margarita made with 7 Up). Decor will include vintage toys and signs, eclectic posters, Southern-brand logos like Popeyes, and flashes of neon; the former Favori Deli space houses a 30-seat dining room and small covered patio, and the restaurant will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. when it opens in late May." - Clair Lorell
