It’s a new week in The Magic City, and that means a new roundup of businesses popping up across town.

From a new streetwear store in Five Points West to a chicken joint in Midfield, here are five businesses that should be on your radar.

Now Open

1. KD’s Fine Meats | Alabaster

In December 2024, KD’s Fine Meats announced their closure through their Facebook page. Now, the longtime butcher shop in Alabaster has reopened after significant delays.

Located off Highway 119, the family-owned shop specializes in cuts of beef, chicken, seafood, pork and locally-sourced side items.

A new restaurant, The Three Delights, is opening soon in Southwest Birmingham. Its name is based on the three main items they serve: Chinese food, wings and fried seafood.  

The restaurant, which is taking over the former Rally’s location on 31st Street South in Birmingham near Germania Park, will be run by a local family that’s been in the food and service industry for 27 years in Fairfield.

It will also be strictly takeout, so you can drive through, walk up to the window or call in your order for pick up.
