New location for Joe Louis Southern Kitchen

It may still be a little gloomy outside but it’s good to know someone’s already thinking about baseball. Joe Louis Southern Kitchen, a restaurant brand honoring boxing legend Joe Louis, has announced plans to open its third location at 1528 Woodward Avenue, Detroit on the Tiger’s Opening Day — April 3. It joins two other locations in Detroit’s New Center and in Southfield. The eatery, led by Joe Louis’ son, Joe Louis Barrow II, and local restaurateur Johnny Cannon, offers an “all-day breakfast” concept. “Detroit helped shape my father. Preserving his name and keeping his legacy alive in the city he loved means the world to me and my family,” Barrow said in a statement. “As we prepare to open our third location, we are continuing to give something meaningful back to the city — inviting visitors, residents and sports fans to experience the values of excellence and community my father stood for.” Knock-out dishes play homage to Joe Louis—such as “The Weigh In” with whipped egg whites, infused with Swiss cheese, broccoli, sauteed spinach, mushrooms, tri-colored peppers, and onions garnished with avocado slices and “The Heavyweight Omelet,” which features a three-egg omelet, infused with spicy beef sausage, bacon, pork sausage, sautéed spinach, mushrooms, onions, and choice of cheese. The 4,000 square foot restaurant has seating for approximately 80 diners.
