- The Local Pig is nearly open.
The East Bottoms will have a new butcher shop on Monday. The Local Pig (2618 Guinotte Avenue), co-owned by chef Alex Pope and Matt Kafka, is set to open February 27. And Pope wants people to know that even if you come in looking only for hamburgers and hot dogs (both made on-site), everything is on the table.
“This is an interactive shop. The butchering table is right around the front corner [of the deli case]. We may be gutting animals when you walk in. It will be very transparent,” Pope says.
