Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen Opening in Branson, Missouri
BRANSON, Mo. (PRWEB) September 02, 2019 -- Southern-inspired, mouth-watering dishes created by Paula Deen and her family will soon be available to the visitors of Branson, MO. The stunning 15,696 square-foot restaurant opens Monday, September 2, on the north end of Branson Landing.
The family-style concept is sure to make everyone’s experience at Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen meaningful and unique. Guests can help themselves to endless portions of delicious, southern food as they pass dishes around with family and friends in a setting that feels like home. Entree, side dish, and dessert recipes are pulled from the pages of Deen’s cookbooks, including favorites such as her southern fried chicken. In fact, when she visits her Family Kitchen locations, she enjoys making her way back to the kitchen to show them how it’s done.
“Opening a door to a new restaurant never gets old,” Paula Deen said. “I had the opportunity to visit Branson and I knew it would be a perfect fit .”
Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen successfully captures the elegance and history of Savannah, Georgia. Deen’s first restaurant, The Lady & Sons, officially opened in downtown Savannah in January 1996. The thriving restaurant had its roots as a lunch delivery service out of Deen’s home beginning in 1989. Current Paula Deen Family Kitchen locations include: Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, Destin, Florida, Panama City Beach, Florida, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and Branson, Missouri.
“I have been humbled and overwhelmed by the amazing success of Lady & Sons and Family Kitchen and look forward to this new partnership,” Deen said.
At Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen restaurant, guests enter and exit through a Paula Deen retail store. Deen has hand-selected every item to reflect Savannah’s rich cultural heritage and luxurious tastes, steeped in decades of her family’s culture. In the store, guests can purchase all of Paula Deen’s products, including cookbooks, aprons and cookware. Many of the products will be found exclusively in her retail stores.
“We are very excited to welcome Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen to Branson Landing. This is a fantastic opportunity for guests to enjoy the warmth and hospitality created by Paula Deen as we bring her kitchen to people in the Branson area. The restaurant’s unique family-style southern food is a great addition to the development and a perfect fit for Branson as a family vacation destination,” said Rick Huffman, President and CEO of HCW, LLC. Branson Landing is owned and operated by HCW, LLC.
The restaurant will bring more than 100 jobs to the area as well as sales tax revenue, which will contribute to the local economy.
