Wing Zone to take flight in S.A.By Joni Simon - Contributing Writer/North Central News
Brad Meltzer has high expectations for a chicken wing franchise he hopes will fly, despite the sluggish economy. The longtime South Texas businessman has just signed a development deal with Wing Zone, which, he said, will take the business to the next level.
The takeout and delivery chicken wing concept now has a recently developed prototype to originate in South and Central Texas. What's new is a wait staff for indoor and patio dining.
The San Antonio restaurants, he said, will have a distinctive regional flavor. Diners can watch the Spurs on large screen televisions as they munch on the wings, paired with local beers and Hill Country wines. Wing Zone also offers salads, grilled sandwiches, burgers and a variety of appetizers.
“We'll have a special French fry that's to die for, onion rings that are delicious and sweet tea,” Meltzer said. “You know how people in South Texas like their tea.”
The first of five initial restaurants opens in May or June of 2010 at Interstate 10 and Callaghan, near Meltzer's Japanese eatery, Benihana. Although he's uncertain at this point where he'll establish the other four, the current real estate market, Meltzer said, is making the site purchases effortless. (Read More)
