Immokalee's Kountry Kitchen finding new life in community revitalization

 With all the construction and revitalization taking place in Immokalee it's hard to believe anyone finds time to eat. 

But Abey's Kountry Kitchen knows hardy appetites are the norm in this community, not the excep,t and the long-popular spot for down home cookin' is changing with the time. 

The Kountry Kitchen, located at the corner of New Market Road and Nixon Drive will soon open a entirely new restaurant - with the same flavorful menu - on the same spot as the current restaurant and will rennovate the "old" restaurant into a banquet hall for parties and weddings, quinceaneras and all sorts of festive gatherings. 

The "old" buiding's facade will be remodeled and rebuilt with the help of a facade grant from the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency. 

The Kountry Kitchen is available online through Urban Spoon and on Yelp, two popular online restaurant referral and geolocaton platforms.
