Vietnamese sandwich and bubble tea restaurant opens in Lake Norman retail center

Co-owners Tracy Quach and Luynh Nguyen have brought the authentic flavors and ingredients of their native Vietnam to Lake Norman with their new bánh mì and bubble tea restaurant, Vietopia . The establishment opened Oct. 1 in the former R&B Tea space in the Winslow Bay Commons (SuperTarget) shopping center at N.C. 150 and Bluefield Road in Mooresville. “When we took over the shop, we wanted to create something special that you could not find around here,” Quach told CharlotteFive at the restaurant Wednesday. Bulgogi Beef ($9.50) is the most popular menu item, Quach said. The bánh mì item includes beef with a secret sauce, pickled Daikon, carrot, cucumber and cilantro. “Very fresh,” Quach said. “Everything homemade.” Other bánh mìs include the Vietnamese Cold Cuts ($9), pork, liver pate and Vietnamese ham; the Mooresville ($9.75), pork, ham and pate; the Vegetarian ($8), tofu and vegan ham; the Shredded Chicken ($9) and the Roasted Pork ($9.50). The Vietnamese baguette with each bánh mì “has a hollow inside, not too dense, a little crispy on the outside, and best when you eat it warm,” Quach said. Fresh spring rolls (pork, shrimp, beef and tofu selections) are $6.50 for two rolls and $9.50

Former Earth Fare site near Charlotte is ready to debut with new specialty grocer

Sprouts Farmers Market is expanding again, debuting its fourth Charlotte-area store in the same spot as a former specialty grocer in time for the holiday season. Sprouts will open at 7 a.m. Friday, Nov. 13, at Christenbury Corners, 8885 Christenbury Parkway , in Concord. The 24,110-square-foot store marks Sprouts’ first location in a Charlotte suburb. The site near Concord Mills mall was previously home to Earth Fare , which closed in August 2025 amid lease negotiations. Asheville-based Earth Fare originally opened there in 2017 before the company filed for bankruptcy in 2020 and reopening under ownership. In 2021, the Concord store reopened. Sprouts’ expansion is part of a highly competitive landscape , where nearly 730 grocery stores are vying for market share across Charlotte’s over $10.8 billion supermarket industry . “Charlotte continues to experience strong population growth and a growing interest in healthy living,” Sprouts told The Charlotte Observer. That includes demand for fresh produce and items that support a healthy lifestyle, the company said.
