Just had a co-worker mention this place. Looks like it has some potential.

I drove by it today. Doesn't look like much has been done lately.

Looks to me like it's died on the vine.

Their Facebook page states they just began accepting applications.

Yep. That just went up last. Week. I'd say they plan on being open for football season.

The owner posted in the beginning of the thread. I'm hoping he gets back on and updates. I read you know the fella. Hope he puts out a good product.

Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of response! I haven't checked TD in a while... We are definitely up and moving - the reason that you saw a lot of work and now not so much is because the electricians/plumbers/etc are all roughing in and the rest of the "construction" can't be completed until all of those systems are set. We are definitely running behind schedule but rest assured, we will be open as soon as we possibly can and we very much appreciate all of the local support we've had so far!!

In response to CreoleGumbo, in the right context, I'd agree with you 100%... If you are buying mass-produced, filler-laden factory sausage from wal-mart and calling it "charcuterie," then yes it would fall into the category of "Hipster Marketing BS." But nearly every single thing that we sell will be made within the confines of our kitchen... THAT, to me, is what real Charcuterie is. I'd invite you to come in and try some when we open and tell us what you think!

That's correct. The deli would be the place they sell charcuterie.
Not exactly

In a gambit to open City Pork Deli and Charcuterie near the Perkins Road overpass, Trey Williams says he has secured the parking to eventually sell smoked and preserved meats by early next summer. The real estate agent says he has permission from the state Department of Transportation and Development to expand the gravel parking lot under the westbound lanes of Interstate 10 by 15 new spaces under the on-ramp that snakes around Parrain's Seafood Restaurant. City Pork Deli, which faces Greenwood Drive at the corner of Hollydale Avenue—and is the former site of The Beehive Salon—already has eight parking spaces in front of the store. "And that gives me all the parking I need, as [the Unified Development Code] goes, plus four spaces," Williams says, for a total of 23. Earlier this month Williams submitted to the city-parish Planning Commission an application to open a deli in the 1,790-square-foot storefront. The board is scheduled to consider the application on Sept. 17. The store, which is located near a number of other overpass area bars and restaurants, has had a notice from the city-parish Office of Alcoholic Beverage Control on it since Aug. 8. "We just want to sell beer and wine," says Williams. The charcuterie—French for "deli," with an emphasis on meats—will be Baton Rouge's first, Williams says, with lunch sandwiches and in-house meats based on the model of Cochon Butcher in New Orleans. Besides selling boudin and andouille, Williams says, City Pork Deli will offer European-style specialties—patés, confit and dry-cured meats—to the neighborhood. —Adam Pearson
I haven't been there yet, but I can honestly say that was the longest paragraph I've read this year.

So what's the word on this place? Will it ever open?
Posted on 10/28/13 at 8:32 am to Rickety Cricket
They looked like they were close a few weeks ago when I passed by. But not open yet as far as I know.
