The historic $2 Trillion Stimulus Package that was passed and signed into law last Friday is designed to offer short-term relief during this crisis for employers and employees who have been laid off from their jobs or are on temporary leave, are self-employed/contractors, or are staying home with their children due to lack of daycare or school closures.

Terms:

• 3.75% interest rate
• Loan does not have to be repaid when it is used to pay for purchases for the business

*Forgivable Loans: up to $10,000,000

Terms:

• 3.75% interest rate if not used for certain purposes
• Loan does not have to be repaid when it is used to pay for business purchases

An elegant dining space and high-end butcher shop are slated to open in Winston-Salem later this year by the owners of Wine Merchants and Vin 205 Wine Bar.

On opening day, planned for March 10, expect twenty flavors of ice cream, four of which will be dairy-free, and another twenty flavors of sodas, malts and shakes.

Boston, MA – Lucie Drink & Dine
The longtime Brasserie Jo space at the Colonnade Hotel will get new life this year as Lucie, a “neighborhood restaurant and bar featuring a modern global menu.” Grill 23 and Oak Long Bar alum Michael Chandler will head up the kitchen; he’s also worked at several Jean-Georges Vongerichten restaurants in New York. 120 Huntington Ave., Back Bay, Boston.

With roots in Glen Rock and a second store in Elmwood Park, Francesca is opening its third location in Fair Lawn. The new shop will open at 25-07 Broadway.

Logansport, IN – B&K West
They still expect to be busy and have cars waiting, and they expect not to have the slight decrease in business that happened while the Market Street bridge was closed for construction. B&K often has waits for vehicles to enter the lot not just on the first day but also the first nice day of spring and Sundays after church lets out, Brenda said. “If the sun’s out, it doesn’t matter how cold it is. We’re busy,” she said. They’ve been asked at times to make spaces in the line going in so people can get out of the parking lot of Kesling Home Health Care next door.

Charlotte, NC – Silverlake
“Our mission is to serve you affordable food that is made with love,” said local owner Leila Zhu. “Silverlake embodies the free spirit and casual vibe of Los Angeles. Cooked up by two chefs who drove their love for noodles and ramen.” Silverlake Ramen has six locations throughout California with another seven locations in development or recently opened, including one in Concord Mills.

New York, NY – Shinbashi 72
Opening at 218 West 72nd between Broadway and West End Avenue in the former home of West Side Cafe. A Japense restaurant called Shinbashi was once in midtown. “There are already two sushi spots on this block and another one right across Broadway spanning all price points, so here’s hoping they offer something to stand out from the crowd (looks like the old [midtown] location also had hot pots),” wrote tipster Jeff.

Port St. Lucie, FL – Ramen Hana & Wings
This isn’t your average 70 cent, grocery store ramen. Ramen Hana & Wings is not open full-time yet, but it is still welcoming guests in its Port St. Lucie restaurant to sample its menu. It’s a Japanese eatery offering specialty ramen bowls including its Hinageshi Hakata Tonkotsu (pork broth and thin noodles topped with chashu, kikurage mushroom, scallion, nori and an egg) and Himawari Shoyu (with chicken soy sauce broth, noodles, chicken, bamboo, nori, scallion and egg.)

Mount Rainier, MD – Pennyroyal Station
Chef Jesse Miller served some of the city’s best bar food (and a killer bar brunch) during his tenure at Bar Pilar. But over the past year-plus, he’s been working with industry vets Erin Edwards and Garrick Lumsden to ready his own neighborhood spot. Pennyroyal will be open all day, offering buttered biscuits with fried chicken in the mornings and mac and cheese with smoked brisket and bone marrow at dinner.

Washington, DC – Daru
Chef Suresh Sundas and barman Dante Datta met as part of the opening team at Rasika West End. Eight years later, they’re bringing their talents to their own drinking (and eating!) destination focused on Indian flavors. Spiced cocktails will riff on classics—an old-fashioned with jackfruit or Scotch and soda with gooseberries—while food is designed for snacking. Expect spicy duck kebabs, stuffed paratha, and masala peanuts, plus a few larger dishes like chicken tikka masala.

Brookline, MA – Bar ‘Cino
Known for its grilled pizza, Bar ‘Cino expanded from Newport, R.I., to a second location in Brookline, a bright, airy space on Beacon Street that opened Jan. 17. The restaurant, which was previously home to Irish bar Waxy’s, is anchored by a center bar, where guests can order a glass of wine or Italian-inspired cocktails like the Downeast negroni. Tuck into pizzas, pastas, and heftier entrées like the chianti-braised beef short rib.

Minneapolis, MN – Billy’s Sushi
When Sweet Chow closed in September, its North Loop address didn’t stay dark for long. Billy Tserenbat, the creative spark behind two Wayzata restaurants — Sushi Fix (which he sold in 2017) and Baja Haus — snapped up the space and began to plot his return to his beloved sushi universe. He’s converting the Sweet Chow bar into a sushi bar, and transforming Sweet Chow’s ice cream scoop shop into a whiskey-sake-shochu bar. It’s going to be a dinner-only format.

Norfolk, VA – Syd’s Fish Pig Cafe
When chef Sydney Meers closed his quirky and acclaimed Portsmouth restaurant, Stove, in 2018, food fans wept. But the famed mid-Atlantic-via-Southern chef never really planned to hang up his toque. Quietly, he plotted his return. “I’m that guy that’s gotta stay busy all the time,” he told The Pilot in June 2019. “I mean how many times can you pet your cat?” After months of buildout in Norfolk’s Selden Arcade, Syd’s Fish Pig Cafe is finally coming due this February. Meers let the fish pig out of the bag a little in December by hanging a preliminary menu on its windows. At the Fish Pig, it turns out you can expect an “infamous cheese tray,” seafood-scrap hushpuppies, “a really big halibut” and a plate full of “heirloom pig stuff,” not to mention an “ole pudding” like the kind his grandmother used to make.

Plano, TX – Bar-Ranch Steak Co.
The dry-aged beef retail shop and deli will open in the previous Dude Sweet Chocolate location. Selling both directly to the public and wholesale to restaurants, Bar-Ranch Steak Co. will feature a rotating menu of various dry-aged beef sandwiches and burgers.

Callie is scheduled to open in the early summer months in the former Bottega Americano space in East Village. Cohn Restaurant Group’s David Cohn and Deborah Scott have partnered with Swikard on the large-scale project that will be an affordably priced, contemporary California-Mediterranean restaurant.

Phoenix, AZ – Chantico
The team behind Ocotillo Restaurant and Starlite BBQ has an new Mexican restaurant planned for midtown Phoenix.

The restaurant will feature an outdoor terrace, private rooms, bar and lounge. It will be open for dinner, lunch, brunch and happy hour.

Boston, MA – Sound Advice
The West End exploded with new restaurants and bars this year, and there’s an entire food hall landing in the neighborhood in 2020.

West Palm Beach, FL – Sassafras

A spokeswoman says the restaurant will have an art deco theme; not much else is known about the restaurant yet.

Florida-born chef Kenny Gilbert will serve wood-fired Southern food at Cut & Gather, which is slated to open in Raleigh in February.

Nashville, TN – PABU
The third location of the MINA Group’s PABU is set to open in early 2020 inside the JW Marriott in downtown Nashville. Like at the other locations (in San Francisco and Boston), PABU will feature a variety of Japanese dining options including a sushi bar, a robata grill and an izakaya with fish flown in from Japan.

Chicago, IL – Avli River North
Avli Taverna was only the appetizer for Louie Alexakis, a chef who’s determined to share Greek culture with the rest of Chicago. Taverna continues to draw crowds in Lincoln Park, but as the name suggests, it’s more of a neighborhood bar. Avli River North is where Alexakis can really show off his food skills. Downtown Chicago rarely sees upscale Greek restaurants. He’s joined by investor Lou Canellis, a Chicago sportscaster. There’s two floors, a patio, and dishes like honey & fig saganaki and Kataifi prawns. Expect an opening the first week of October.

Los Angeles, CA – Yakido Yakitori
Hong Kong chef Matt Abergel and partner Lindsay Jang know how to throw a party. The pair have been collaborating across two continents, turning chicken skewers and keeping the drinks flowing. Now the pair is set to open Yakido, a yakitori and bar stop in Downtown Los Angeles by the end of the year. To build anticipation for the smokey, vibey restaurant, the pair have been embarking on a series of pop-ups in Los Angeles and beyond, from food festivals to one one night stands at Shibumi. The hype is already real.

Philadelphia, PA – Bud & Marilyn’s
Safran Turney’s second location of their Midwestern supper club, located between Terminals B and C at PHL, will be ready to serve you pre-flight fried cheese curds in the next week or so.

Brooklyn, NY – F & F Pizzeria
This new slice shop comes from well-established Brooklyn restaurateurs Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli, together known as the Franks — with some help from two of the biggest bread and pizza bakers in the country: Chad Robertson of beloved California bakery Tartine and Chris Bianco of the popular Pizza Bianco in Arizona, who are taking a non-financial consulting role in the new spot. The pizzas here will be made from grain that’s freshly milled every two weeks and natural sourdough leaven, a bid to create a more sustainable and healthy pie. Slice shops are certainly having their moment, and this addition is likely to be just as promising for the neighborhood. The Franks, after all, already run neighborhood hits like Frankies 457 Spuntino and a next-door wine bar

Nashville, TN – Lou
The cozy Inglewood house most recently occupied by Fort Louise returns to life so soon as a new all-day cafe, brunch locale, and natural wine bar. Owned by chef Mailea Weger, the 1930s craftsman home in East Nashville’s hip Riverside Village sees a fresh white coat of paint and interior refresh plus an exciting menu for Nashville, one that includes Tuesday through Sunday brunch. After spending time at New Orleans’ Herbsaint, Weger opened LA’s cult-favorite restaurant Gjusta as Sous Chef and was later promoted to its sister restaurant, Gjelina. Most recently, she led the kitchen at Echo in Paris, France, a Parisian-Californian café and deli that garnered much critical acclaim. Weger’s menu in her new Nashville project is a nod to healthy-ish West Coast cuisine — emphasizing seasonality and sustainability through vegetable-forward dishes and a focused selection of proteins, alongside a low-ABV cocktail menu and an all-natural wine program to complement each dish.

Portland, OR– Two Wrongs
No, it’s not the shortly lived cocktail bar and nightclub that closed in 2018, but it does share the name and will be in the Pearl — Two Wrongs comes from River Pig owner Ramzy Hattar along with some bar veterans and will feature tropical drinks and slushies paired with Moroccan and Armenian cuisine like sweet and savory crepes, developed by Instagram food personality Chef Monkey, aka Naira Ayvazyan. The space itself sounds dreamy, with Spanish and Moroccan tiles and Moroccan lanterns.
