First Look: Rising Son, 2016

"On a recent weekday, Rising Son was packed at lunchtime, filled with the melting pot of types that populate Avondale Estates — senior couples out for a leisurely meal, families with young children trying to maintain the peace, hipstery twenty-somethings with tattoos as bright as the art on the walls. It seemed like everyone was perfectly comfortable digging in to the comfort food at the Rouses' Rising Son."
