Despite a clear directive from Gov. Asa Hutchinson that Arkansas restaurant employees who come in contact with customers must wear face masks, some restaurants are still not taking the safety precaution to try and limit the spread of the coronavirus. But Hutchinson said Tuesday he believes most restaurants are following his guidance.
What Restaurants Do We Need To Bring Back To Texarkana?
I was driving to lunch today and saw the empty Hawkin s Grill spot. I remembered when it was Johnny Carino s This was once one of my favorite spots and I also remember all of the great dates I went on with my wife. I wished that it was still open.
So what are some places that we need to come back to Texarkana?
1.
Johnny Carino s. A great place for some unique Italian dishes, Unfortunately, the closest one to us is in Waxahachie.
2.
Charcoal Broiler. There were two locations of this Texarkana staple in the 70s and they were famous for their chicken fried steak.
