Chick-fil-A tests sweet potato fries

Chick-fil-A has launched a new product.

You can't buy it across the country, but it is available in the Mid-South - sweet potato fries!

The new waffle fries are being tested in the Memphis market.

They launched May 2, and are sold in addition to the traditional waffle french fries.

Look for them at area stores in the near future.

Top Chef serves up Big Bad Breakfast

Top Chef Masters contestant Chef John Currence owns a number of restaurants in Oxford, Mississippi.  This weekend I ate at Big Bad Breakfast.   The menu offers breakfast like poached eggs with country ham and oatmeal pancakes with strawberries.  It also offers lunch like burgers, griddle-fried hot dogs and Coca-Cola brined fried chicken.   It's the perfect place to eat brunch.

Check out the full menu here: http://citygroceryonline.com/restaurant.php?bbb

Couple celebrates 60th anniversary

One Southaven couple celebrated a very special anniversary Friday night at their favorite Friday night restaurant - Chick-Fil-A.

Leona and Charlie Jackson have been married for 60 years.

Leona turned 84 Monday, and Charlie will be 90 next month.

Every Friday they spend date night at Chick-fil-A for dinner. So their daughter thought it would be fun to throw their 60th wedding anniversary party at Chick-fil-A Southaven.

Family and friends were invited to join the Jacksons for their very special Friday tradition and added some extra decorations and dessert for the occasion.
