In October, Southern Proper Hospitality Group is set to open a second location of its popular Buckhead restaurant, The Big Ketch Saltwater Grill , on busy Canton Street in Downtown Roswell.
Chef Derek Dollar, who leads the kitchen at Milton's Cuisine & Cocktails in Crabapple, will lend his touch to the menu at the "beach chic" dining spot, which will be open for lunch and dinner.
“With a lighter approach to cuisine, we’re looking to bring fresh seafood options to Canton Street,” Dollar said in a press release. “There are some great chef-driven restaurants on the corridor already, and I’m proud to be a part of this dining destination.”
New menu items unique to the Roswell location will include spicy conch fritters, a grouper Reuben, a Charleston curry seafood bowl, and jerked pork chops with caramelized pineapple. Favorites from the Buckhead location, such as basil-Blue Moon mussels and the Big Ketch grouper sandwich, will be on the menu, too.
In addition to Big Ketch and Milton's, Southern Proper also operates Smokebelly BBQ, The Blind Pig, Gypsy Kitchen and The Southern Gentleman in Buckhead.
