That has been, and will continue to be, the driving force behind our success, plain and simple," says Kunkel. "We have more concepts in the works and our goal is to continue to develop ideas that we're passionate about. We're lucky enough to be building and operating the kind of places that we want to hang out and have a great meal and a great time in
The Southern Table
Comfort and company. Laughter and tears. Triumph and tribulation. The table has long been the center of Southern life. Where folks have shared joy, pain and progress over painstakingly prepared meals resourcefully crafted from whatever was available and fresh. Equal parts sanctuary and sounding board, the table gave people a place to come together and exchange cares and dreams over food meant to calm and nourish the soul as much as the body.
Yardbird is a tribute to the importance of a shared meal and a shared laugh. To nurturing dishes made with love and pride. And to the idea that there ain’t no kinda problem that a little home cookin’ can’t fix. |
