Karen's Kitchen - Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas 6M2
It was a just gorgeous day to fly and a great place to go for lunch. Maybe as good as Taylor’s at Pine Bluff and that’s saying sum’tun!
Karen’s is a great place to go. Located about 100 yards from the hangars at the airport (6M2) so it’s like …. right there! No car needed. Food was very good, very inexpensive, and the service was great! Great place to take your wife or a date for lunch when the boys can't come out and play. Dasha our waitress was from Russia with a real Russian accent …. As far as any of us could tell! Also cute so that was good too!
Had a really nice menu with a variety of salads, fried and grilled stuff but the lunch special today was a cup of 3-Bean Chili with a grilled cheese sandwich for $3.50 …. That’s right $3.50. For a buck, you could upgrade to a large bowl with the grilled cheese on wheat bread and they had several takers for that selection.... (410 total calories for anyone that is counting
) We had about 6 cups of coffee each (did I tell you it was COLD flying today) and the special and walked out with the tip for less than $7 a head…. What a deal!
Now don’t you think it’s a little ironic that we are so enthused about the “deal” when we’re burning $6 a gallon fuel to get there … But then we do “fly for food” don’t we! This is definitely one of the places to put on the list of places to go or stop if you get the chance.
Open 7-1 on Sunday and 7-4 Weekdays. Phone 870-67-5553 and yes, Karen was there in the kitchen making it happen!
We gave it a 8-9 on the RV Lunch Spot Scale
