Reba McEntire's Culinary Journey: The Excitement Behind Reba's Place In Atoka, Oklahoma

Reba McEntire is hard at work assembling the menu for her new Atoka, Okla., venue, bar and eatery, called Reba's Place. This new hotspot is set to feature a variety of personal touches that pay homage to McEntire's favorite dishes. For many of her fans, this means one thing: corn dogs! The beloved singer has openly shared her fondness for corn dogs, frequently posting delightful snapshots of herself enjoying this treat on social media. She even introduced the fried delicacy to late-night host James Corden, showcasing her love for this classic snack.

During a March 2022 press conference with Taste of Country and other media outlets, McEntire revealed that her taste for corn dogs has somewhat diminished over the years. "You know, chicken fingers have replaced corn dogs now. I guess we got a little burnt out on the corn dog," she admitted, but reassured fans that corn dogs would still have a place on the menu at Reba's Place. This menu will be crafted by Chef Curtis, who promises to deliver a fantastic array of options, including steaks, cheeseburgers, beans, and cornbread alongside the beloved corn dogs and chicken fingers.

McEntire is equally excited about collaborating with her hometown community for this venture. The project, Reba's Place, showcases a strong partnership between McEntire's team, the city of Atoka, and the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. "We’re hoping to be able to do a soft opening real soon," she added, expressing her joy over the community's eagerness for this new establishment. It’s clear that Reba’s Place is more than just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of her roots and a fresh chapter for the town of Atoka.
