Celebrity owned restaurants are all the rage, of late. From Shilpa Shetty to Priyanka Chopra, it’s not uncommon to find celebrities donning the entrepreneurial cap and opening restaurants that serve the most delicious food in town. The latest celebrities to do so, are the Jonas brothers. The Jonas family have opened a new restaurant in Las Vegas called Nellie’s Southern Kitchen, honouring their great grandmother. This restaurant in Las Vegas isn’t the first restaurant that the Jonas brothers have opened. Nellie’s Southern Kitchen, first opened in Belmont, North Carolina, and the new restaurant in Las Vegas is the second branch of this restaurant. Looks like Priyanka Chopra isn’t the only one in the marriage to have a restaurant to her name.
Talking to a leading travel magazine in New York, Joe Jonas shared the reason for opening a new branch of Nellie’s Southern Kitchen. "There are a lot of amazing recipes that we have had in the family for many years that we serve here," Joe Jonas told the magazine, adding, “Our great-grandmother made very traditional chicken and dumplings and biscuits and gravy. We like to have them in our own home and share them with our friends and fans." The intent of expanding their business in the F&B industry comes from a love for their great grand mother’s home cooked meals. What can be more heart warming than this?

The Jonas family even has plans of expanding their restaurant internationally. Can you guess which city they are considering? It’s Mumbai! Kevin Sr. told the publication, “There are some opportunities in the US we are exploring, but I would love to be in Mumbai. If I were choosing a culture and city we love — Mumbai is a very special place." We are sure you’re as excited as we are for the plans of the Jonas family to materialise soon.
