Charlotte chef Michael Bowling opens South End ghost kitchen for HBX Burger

CHARLOTTE — Chef Michael Bowling is bringing Hot Box Next Level Kitchen back home.

The concept opened a ghost kitchen at Southend Eats this week. The new venture is called HBX Burger, Bowling says.

“This is a first step for us to be back in the city,” he says. “It’s a chance for us to jump back in the market (and) do something we’ve never done before.”

The concept got its start in Charlotte as a food truck a decade ago, followed up by a location at Southern Strain Brewing in Concord.
