The Summer 2023 issue of Food & Dining Magazine — our 20th Anniversary issue — is now available in all the familiar places: Louisville area eateries and food shops, newsstands and online.
Just yesterday we observed the sad passing of Wild Ginger, the decade-old sushi and Asian fusion emporium in the Highlands.
As noted French chef Paul Bocuse is reputed to have said, “concept-driven dining scenes abhor a vacuum,” and it is in this utterly fictitious spirit of entrepreneurial panache that we point to the stellar reporting of Michael L. Jones, who laps the field on a weekly basis at Louisville Business First.
(As a side note, today’s cover photo was unearthed from the F&D archive and is not intended as foreshadowing.)
Restaurateur behind the Village Anchor, Le Moo opening NuLu sushi spot
A new sushi restaurant is coming to the NuLu neighborhood this fall.
Sake A Go Go is scheduled to open at 620 E. Market St. in September. The 3,000-square-foot space was previously occupied by Toast on Market, which closed in May 2022.
Sake A Go Go is a new concept from Kevin Grangier, the restaurateur behind the Village Anchor, Le Moo and Grassa Gramma. He is the founder, president and CEO of Belle Noble Entertainment Group, the restaurants’ parent company.
The prolific reporter Jones also offers this Easter egg as coda.
Charles Reed, owner of Melba’s Culinary Campus, announced back in October 2022 that he planned to relocate his popular breakfast and lunch restaurant from Downtown Louisville to the first floor of the (620) East Market Street property, which will also feature residential housing. But his plans seem to have changed.
