Local 127 opens

So they opened the restaurant that will be where the former Pigalls was - it sounds cool, but there's really not been any mention of when the new bar Toxic Union will open (terrible name by the way). I heard the servers wear Chuck Taylors as part of their uniforms. I like it a lot! Hopefully the chef helming the restaurant will get along well with the Wades....

Local 127, the restaurant concept succeeding the former Pigall’s downtown with a focus on “farm-to-table” cuisine, opened Tuesday.Twist Lounge, the popular cocktail club located beside the former Pigall’s restaurant, will reopen as Tonic Union.
The restaurant, first announced in August, will be operated by the Relish Restaurant Group, headed by Martin and Marilyn Wade. The chef will be Steven Geddes, also a master sommelier, whose experience includes Aureole at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Wolfgang Puck’s Trattoria del Lupo and his own restaurants, Alchemy Kitchen and Asia in Las Vegas. Geddes is joined by fellow chef Kyle Johnson.
In a press release, Geddes described Local 127 is a new American eatery with an emphasis on farm-to-table dining, relying on local sources.
The former Pigall’s had been operated by French chef Jean-Robert de Cavel and the Wades, his backers. But the partnership broke up in February and the restaurant closed soon after. The Wades’ other restaurants include JeanRo Bistro, Lavomatic, Greenup Café and Chalk.
