Park House Kitchen + Bar- Alma Sanchez

Flavors of Northwest Arkansas

On this week’s edition of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas podcast, we hop over to Siloam Springs and to the Park House Kitchen + Bar, where we interview owner/operator Alma Sanchez.

But before we got into that interview, we wrapped up Top Chef NWA 2024 benefitting the Rogers Public Library Foundation. We’ll hear from the winners and have some news about a popular new part-owner of a Springdale restaurant.

Also, this coming weekend will be a popular grand opening weekend in Bentonville. Callisto will be opening on Friday (check out our Facebook/Instagram for our soft opening story) and Brothers Meethouse will be opening on Friday in the Market District. We’ll hear from them.

So glad that we got to the Park House Kitchen + Bar in Siloam Springs. Really enjoyed the interview, the space, and the food! For those that haven’t been there, Alma Sanchez has an amazing place in the downtown historic district right by the City Park & Gazebo and Sager Creek. She was raised in the restaurant world and grabbed the opportunity of the Park House when it unexpectedly became available, just a few weeks after sitting on the porch there, wondering aloud how cool it would be to own the place.

It used to be a hotel, and still kind of is. Alma will explain that.

She also talks about how they came up with the menu for the place. They thought outside the box for this one and it worked out well.

She talks about how they pivoted to survive covid, and how that kept her from having to lay anyone off.

Also, any place that has brunch on the weekends, chicken and waffles, and a Monte Cristo has my attention!

We talk to Alma Sanchez from Park House Kitchen & Bar, next, here on the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas.
