We've got a roundup of recent restaurant news on this week's Access Louisville podcast.

First off, we talk to Reporter Michael L. Jones about how he got the story of Anoosh Bistro in East Louisville selling to a new owner. Jones said it started with him seeing a photo online of Anoosh Shariat and Chef David Danielson posing together. Turns out that Anoosh had sold the restaurant to Danielson, who had always dreamed of having a place like it. Details on the Anoosh Bistro sale can be found here. 

After that we talk about a few more restaurant items, including a new location for Popeyes Chicken in West Louisville and a new location of Chik-fil-A in St. Matthews. We also talk about some expansion plans from Louisville-based breakfast and brunch chain Wild Eggs, which is eyeing the Lexington market. This leads to a discussion of our favorite local breakfast dishes.

Finally, we wrap up the show with some 2024 solar eclipse talk. Reporter Piper Hansen posted a story on how the celestial event is expected to bring crowds and tourism to Southern Indiana.
