Amid several reports and rumors surrounding chef Ron Eyester's upcoming projects (AJC, Eater, Tomorrow's News Today), CL confirmed that while no leases have been signed, Eyester (Rosebud, Family Dog) is in fact considering the former Fox Sports Grill space in Atlantic Station for a diner concept and the former Waffold space in Morningside for a pizza joint.
After a 22-year run, Carver's Country Kitchen (1118 W. Marietta St.) will close its doors March 30.
New Indian restaurant Chai Pani Decatur is set to open Fri., March 1 at 406 W. Ponce de Leon Ave. in the former Watershed space. It will encompass many of the same themes as its original restaurant in Ashville, N.C., known for its "chaat - crunchy, spicy, sweet, tangy, brightly flavored Indian street snacks," in addition to Indian street sandwiches, "uttapam" (Indian crepes), "thalis" (traditional entrees), desserts, beverages and signature cocktails.
