7 Oklahoma Country Musician Restaurant Ideas

11:00 AM EDT on November 2, 2017

With the runaway success of joints like Toby Keith’s "I Love This Bar and Grill" and Blake Shelton’s Ole Red (and probably numerous Hunt Brothers Pizza franchises), the Okie dining scene is practically begging for more well-primed and beautifully pumped celebrity eateries, spread throughout the state or, heck, even just the Metro itself. I know I’d eat there. You know you would too. Patrick and I came up with five possible ideas for theme restaurants in case any Oklahoma country music superstars are checking their Google alerts today.

2. Reba’s Fancy Fine Dining Parlor and Part-Time Bordello

Lookin’ for a little, ahem, privacy? We’ll does Reba have a deal for you! Ladies of the night who need a place to hock their wares without fear before their sophisticated male callers of a certain distinction, one where they can be nice to the gentleman and vice-versa. For the best in illicit high-quality dining and after-dinner conversation, here’s our one chance to introduce Fancy Fine Dining Parlor, where we won’t let you (or your need for discretion) down and we guarantee it.  Serving high-protein erotic dishes like the “Little Rock” Oysters and the Hot Chile-Chocolate “Sunday Kind of Love,” all from the safety of an old house on the outskirts of town that resembles the night that the light went out in Georgia.
