hat began as a way to pass the time and honor the memory of a beloved mother has grown into one of Carter County’s favorite places to enjoy good food and excellent customer service. Kimbo’s Restaurant opened eight years ago after owner Kim Richardson lost her mother Betty. “Something I always loved to do was cook, and I also just needed something to do after she passed, so I opened the restaurant in her honor,” Richardson said. “We even have a breakfast item that is named after her, the Big Betty Breakfast.” The restaurant first opened in Stoney Creek. “After some challenges in my life I had to close the other location, so I decided to open up here,” Richardson said. “And with the help of God, my family, and my friends and we have been here for a year.” And the restaurant is thriving, having recently won “Best of the Best” honors for its legendary breakfasts and for the customer service provided by server Abby Dugger. “Winning best of the best means the absolute world to me because it shows me that I am able to do this and succeed,” Richardson said.
Named after owner Kimbo Richardson’s late mother Betty, the Big Betty Breakfast offers many options for all to enjoy.
