— “I like to cook. Everyone always gathered at my house for family dinners,” said Brenda Ramsey, explaining what prompted her to open a restaurant. “We sell good food at a fair price.”

Brenda’s Kitchen, in Lowell for four years, recently closed and is now operated from a trailer in Pea Ridge providing takeout meals.

Brenda and her husband, Keith Ramsey, own and operate the food trailer on the northwest corner of Slack and Weston streets at 624 W. Slack. Entrance is on Slack Street for the oneway driveway.

Brenda was a stay-athome mom for 15 years.

She is limited at this time by her location and the lack of an oven, but cooks on the grill, in a fryer and on the stove-top.

“I make a mean burrito,” Ramsey said of the giant concoction of home-made refried beans, home-made Spanish rice, chopped steak and other ingredients. On Fridays and Saturdays, they serve fried catfish dinners with brown beans and hushpuppies BRENDA . With ’S a MENU little no- $5 BASKETS (INCLUDES DRINK AND TAX)
