22 South Food Hall, an incubator for budding restaurateurs to hone their craft, will reopen in St. Pete. The ownership team made the announcement on Facebook on August 6. The concept was open for a few short months before those involved made the announcement that it would have to close. The loss of partner Vincent Jackson was cited as one of the reasons behind the closing.
