MERIDIAN, Miss. (WTOK) -A new business has joined the EMBDC as Don P’s “ Taste of the Bayou ” hosted a ribbon cutting Friday afternoon, signifying their place in the Queen City.
The restaurant permanently opened its door on April 11th, as they started in Meridian as a food truck, and now it has become a popular lunch spot for many people in the city of Meridian.
The owner of Don P’s says that he enjoys sharing his food with the people in the Queen City and talks more about how he got his start.
“It’s just amazing to be here with the people in Meridian, they appreciate my food and I appreciate cooking it for them, everything from scratch, and I won’t ever change that, I’ve been in the restaurant business before in Thibodaux with my papa and my daddy, and my brother. We had restaurants, and I got away from it for a while, and I decided to get back in. I have worked on the pipeline for several years, 13 years, and my grandbabies were born. I got three of them and ain’t nothing like them,”
Donnie and his family are excited to continue sharing their food with the people of the Queen City.
