Sammy Davis, a Food Network "Chopped" winner, is teaming with Miskiri Hospitality Group to open Sunday Social, a new all-day dining spot in South Baltimore. The partners plan to move into the storefront most recently occupied by Papi Cuisine and build a breakfast-through-dinner operation for the neighborhood. No firm opening date has been announced yet, but the collaboration is poised to be another notable entry in South Baltimore's evolving restaurant lineup.
Plans for the space
According to the Baltimore Business Journal, Sunday Social is billed as an all-day dining experience that will take over the former Papi Cuisine space. The outlet names Chef Sammy Davis and Jeffeary (Jeff) Miskiri as the partners driving the project.
Who’s behind the restaurant
Chef Sammy Davis is best known for his Milk & Honey restaurants and for winning an episode of Food Network's Chopped, per Eater DC. Miskiri Hospitality Group, which highlights several Southern and Creole concepts in the D.C. area on its website, is slated to handle operations for the new venture, according to the group.
The location
The storefront sits in South Baltimore, where business listings show Papi Cuisine at 2 E Wells St as permanently closed, a space the partners plan to reuse. MapQuest lists the former Papi Cuisine location at that address.
What to expect
While the partners have not released a menu, Davis's previous restaurants have leaned into Southern comfort food and brunch-forward dishes, which suggests Sunday Social will favor approachable, all-day plates instead of a white-tablecloth reboot. Paired with Miskiri's regional experience running Southern and Creole concepts, the new spot seems aimed at becoming a neighborhood go-to from morning through evening rather than a special-occasion splurge.
Timing and next steps
An opening date was not disclosed in the initial report, and details on construction, hiring, and the menu are still pending, according to the Baltimore Business Journal. Expect more concrete news on hours, menu previews, and a grand-opening timeline once the partners move further along in the process.
