Shawn Gregory said he wasn’t looking to open another restaurant.
That was until last fall when Gregory said he received a flier from Blackwood Development Co. in search of a barbecue concept for its Northcross Center.
“I’ve always been a fan of Green Top,” Gregory said of the outdoor sports store that anchors the shopping center. “My original conversation was to have a mobile food stop there.”
