Tonight the long awaited newest addition to Downtown Statesboro held a “private” opening.  Chops is located on West Main Street in walking distance from the studio.  This is a dream come true for Statesboro Entrepreneur Skip Aldred.  Skip was a pioneer in downtown restoration.  He developed this building which housed a dry cleaners for years in to luxury apartments and quaint retail shops.  The addition of this classy restaurant is the final part of this long range development.  A few community leaders got a VIP test run of the restaurant.  Tomorrow all of you can enjoy CHOPS with their official opening.  The restaurant is beautiful.  They have done a phenomenal job with dark woods, exposed brick and focus lighting - that gives you the feel of a Houston’s restaurant.  The food presentation was wonderful and the food was incredible.  We tried a the steak, chicken and salmon and would recommend any of these.  Here is a preview for you of the restaurant and food.

We welcome the Thomm family to downtown Statesboro.  We will be seeing lots of you - I am sure!
