Fig Jam Kitchen & Bar To Relocate to 12th & Midtown

Globally Inspired American Restaurant to Open Early Fall 2013

The 12^th & Midtown development team of Selig Enterprises, Daniel Corp. and partner Northwestern Mutual are pleased to announce that Fig Jam Kitchen & Bar will soon add its classic fare with a modern twist to the growing list of internationally inspired restaurants in the fast-growing mixed-use development district on Atlanta’s Midtown Mile. Fig Jam will relocate from Brookwood Place on Peachtree Street and open early fall 2013 at 77 12^th, a 23-story mixed-use tower consisting of 330 luxury one-and-two-bedroom apartment homes atop more than 20,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space.

"Fig Jam is a creative and unique dining destination in Atlanta, and we are honored to bring it to 12^th & Midtown," said Shirley Gouffon, senior vice president of Selig Enterprises. “Our dining component showcases international cuisine, and Fig Jam perfectly exemplifies that with a new American menu that is local and authentic, yet internationally inspired.”

“We are excited about the new 12^th & Midtown location because we feel our concept fits with the neighborhood, and the area is becoming very metropolitan with great diversity,” said Costanzo Astarita, Fig Jam Kitchen & Bar partner.

The new Fig Jam space will consist of 2,000 square feet, creating a more intimate and romantic experience for diners than the previous Brookwood location. Fresh, locally sourced and seasonally changing ingredients will be the focus of an approachable, American menu with global influences, with dynamic options to appeal to the Midtown audience.

Fig Jam will join 12^th & Midtown’s current restaurants, including STK, Cucina Asellina, Ri Ra Irish Pub, RA Sushi, Mi Cocina and Piola; Café Intermezzo, Taco Diner, Tabla and Panera Bread are slated to open later this year.
