To say that Fifth Group Restaurant president Robby Kukler has been busy lately is like saying that Paula Deen enjoys butter. He has recently opened up Downtown restaurant Alma Cucina, successfully competed for four spots at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, and is in the construction phase of his latest venture, Lure, a Midtown seafood restaurant opening this summer in the former Vickery’s spot.
