Any day now, Jinx Kern will be supplying her with boxed barbecue lunches schlepped over from his tiny original location.

Jinx says this is the first toehold in a long-term plan for Downtown Jinxifica-tion. “I hope ultimately not just to be up there by proxy, but to have my own place on the Mall,” he says. We’ll lobby for seating when that day finally comes.
