Restaurateurs behind Lulu’s talk expansion plans

Restaurateurs behind Lulu’s talk expansion plans (MELISSA KEY/CBJ)

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Maryland natives Joseph ‘Jay’ and Miketa Davis met in Charlotte, while taking down a bail jumper in 2016. He was a bounty hunter; she was the bait to lure in their target.

Fast forward five years. The duo is now married — and catching hungry diners.

They launched the popular LuLu’s Maryland Style Chicken & Seafood on Tuckaseegee Road in November 2019. A second restaurant is under construction in Plaza Midwood and should open this spring.

The couple recently spoke with CBJ about how they got the original location off the ground as well as what to expect at the second location — and beyond. Read the full story here.
