A new restaurant, Chapter 6, is slated to open this November at The Line in South End, offering small plates with a global perspective.

The concept — the 6th restaurant in Jon and Kim Dressler’s Rare Roots Hospitality group — will focus on the flavors of the world, Jon Dressler said. Charlotte Business Journal first reported the news.

“It could be Spain one day, could be Moroccan the next. It gives the chef an opportunity to highlight what he likes to do and local flavors according to what the farmers have in season,” he said.

Executive chef Scott Hollingsworth and Jonathan Cox will take charge of the menu, while Brittany “BK” Kellum will be the “driving force” behind the cocktail program, Dressler said. Both Cox and Kellum are now at Fin & Fino.

The 6,600-square-foot restaurant space will be designed with a clean, modern feel — with Kim Dressler at the helm — and roll-up doors that open to a 60-70 seat patio, overlooking onto the Rail Trail.

The Line at South End includes office space with a sky lobby, and Sycamore Brewing will anchor the ground floor, including space for its Beach Shack Coffee bar. Other tenants include Grit Box Fitness and Savi Provisions, an Atlanta-based organic food market selling wine and beer, cheese and charcuterie, along with baked goods and other staples, Lauren Leeten with Foundry Commercial confirmed.
