The neighborhood butcher shop is experiencing a revival, as evidenced by the opening of at least four shops in the metro area in the past five years. Owner Rusty Bowers of Pine Street Market helped pioneer the resurgence when he opened in 2008. Since then, we've seen Spotted Trotter, Kinship Butcher & Sundry, Frazie’s Meat & Market, Evergreen Butcher & Baker, and Vice Kitchen have joined the mix.
