A restaurant group is hungry for expansion in Hampton Roads and Central Virginia.
Boil Bay, a Cajun-style seafood restaurant, plans to open this summer at 1865 Southpark Boulevard in the Southpark Square Shopping Center in Colonial Heights, says founder Raymond Xiao. The eatery has leased the 9,600-square-foot space where it plans have a bar and live entertainment.
Xiao, 40, says he plans to open at the end of this month another Boil Bay location in Virginia Beach, and he has plans to open a hot pot restaurant in Virginia Beach as well. Xiao says two more ventures are in the works for Richmond and another two are planned closer to the coast.
“I love to work in restaurants,” says Xiao, adding he’s working in the business since he was a teenager. “I love to cook.”
