DownUnder chef Jared Lupin and business partner Matt Marlowe have won the keys to a fully equipped Tempe restaurant, Salt Public Relations announced today.
The PR company, which represents some of the Valley’s top restaurants, held a contest to fill the vacant restaurant space below its offices between Mill Avenue and ASU. Lupin and Marlowe, who were selected from nearly 100 entries, also get six months of free marketing.
The pair plan to open a ramen shop called Umami, which also will offer fresh seafood, bento boxes, and Japanese beers. It’s scheduled to open next month at 21 E. Sixth St.
