Jeremiah's Italian Ice to open new locations in Baton Rouge, Ascension Parish

Yahoo03-04-2025
BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A frozen dessert shop is expanding in the Baton Rouge area this summer.
Jeremiah's Italian Ice is aiming to open another shop in Baton Rouge and their first in Ascension Parish. They opened their first location in September 2022 at 3260 Highland Road.
The second location in Baton Rouge will be at 4343 S Sherwood Forest Blvd Ste A.
The store in Ascension Parish will be located at 117 N Airline Highway in Gonzales.
According to Franchise Operating Partner, Cody Loveland, the Gonzales location is tracking to open at or around the same time as the second location in Baton Rouge.
Loveland said the Gonzales location is on track to open in late May or early June.
As for the location on Sherwood Forest Boulevard, he said they will hold a soft opening and then a grand opening around a month after that.
The franchise operating partner gave many reasons why they are opening this second location including the presence of a drive-thru, many churches and schools in the area and a low build out cost.
Whichever store that customers go to, they can expect to see their authentic Italian Ice, soft ice cream, Jelati and Jelati cakes. Loveland said Jelati is a 'perfect layering of any of our Italian Ice flavors and our rich soft ice cream.'

Jeremiah's Italian Ice also has locations in Covington and Mandeville.
Loveland said Jeremiah's Italian Ice is aiming to open a shop in Youngsville this summer too. If all goes well, there will be six stores in Louisiana before summer ends.
The first Jeremiah's Italian Ice opened in Winter Park, Fla. in 1996.

Trump nominates Louisiana BESE member for director of US Mint

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — President Donald Trump nominated Louisiana Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) member Paul Hollis to serve as U.S. Mint director. According to the White House, he would serve a term of five years as Director of the U.S. Mint. Gov. Jeff Landry congratulated Hollis in a social media post Thursday. Hollis previously served 12 years in the Louisiana House of Representatives. 'To say I'm honored by this nomination would be a gross understatement,' said Hollis. 'As a lifelong student of American coinage and longtime business-owner in a related field, I have significant knowledge and experience in the production and distribution of coins, in addition to a strong appreciation for the historical value our coinage holds.' 'I'm so thankful to President Trump, Senators Kennedy and Cassidy, Speaker Johnson, and Majority Leader Scalise for advancing this nomination,' Hollis added. 'If confirmed by the Senate, I will serve with pride.' See a penny, pick it up?

Voters to decide on Zachary school district tax proposal in Nov. 15 election

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — Voters in Zachary will decide on a proposed school district tax initiative in November that would go toward raises for teachers and staff, building maintenance, and updating technology. The Zachary Community School District explains online that while this is a new proposed tax, it would not increase tax rates. Voters would see the proposition, which would rededicate funds from existing bond tax millages, on the ballot in the Nov. 15 election. 'The proposal is to continue collecting a property millage that is already in place (from bonds that are being paid off) and use that money for other district needs. In short, you will pay the same property tax rate you pay now – it's just that after the bond is paid each year, any millages not needed will go into teacher pay, school maintenance, and technology instead of rolling off,' the school system explained. School district officials said school board members could roll millages back if more funding becomes available. Voters who want to ask questions or learn more about the tax initiative can attend a community meeting set for 6 p.m. Thursday, July 24, at the school district's main office on Church Street. What would the funding go to? If approved, the money would go to three specific areas. Pay raises: The school district said it aims to be more competitive with salaries and benefits for teachers and staff like nearby districts. Building upgrades: Officials said repairs and upgrades are needed for older school buildings between 10-20 years old. Projects would include roof replacements, HVAC systems, and safety improvements. Technology upgrades: Funding would be used to upgrade technology for staff and students.

These 14 new NYC restaurants were just added to the Michelin Guide

They're officially on the map. Fourteen Big Apple restaurants were added to the Michelin Guide on Wednesday, and shockingly, most of them were not in Manhattan. Brooklyn had the most Michelin newcomers, with eight. Manhattan managed only six. The borough of churches boasted Middle Eastern restaurant Yemenat in Bay Ridge; 6 Restaurant, a European eatery in Carroll Gardens; Mango Bay, a Caribbean place in Fort Greene; Café Kestrel, a a contemporary joint in Red Hook; Taqueria El Chato in Greenpoint; and Enso, a sushi spot in Williamsburg. Two Brooklyn Thai spots — Glin Thai Bistro in Fort Greene and Hungry Thirsty in Carroll Gardens — also made the cut. Manhattan's new entries were: Adda, an Indian restaurant, and Caribbean Kabawa, both in the East Village; Joomak, a contemporary restaurant, and Central Asian spot Laliko, both in the West Village; along with French restaurant Maison Passerelle in FiDi. Glin Thai Bistro in Fort Greene was one of the 14 new NYC restaurants mentioned in the Michelin Guide. Glin Thai Bistro / Facebook Adda, an Indian restaurant in the East Village, was also amongst the newcomers to the list. Adda / Instagram The one Manhattan newcomer above 14th Street was Papa San, a Japanese-Peruvian eatery on West 34th Street. When looking at all the NYC entries in the Michelin Guide, Manhattan leads the way with 263 restaurants mentioned. Brooklyn is second with 82 entries; followed by Queens (18), the Bronx (six) and Staten Island (four).
