Kim Presley. Kim and her husband Stan run the kitchen and they serve some awesome food! Most gem shows have no food to offer or if they do, it's a food truck selling overpriced greasy crap. The Shriners have a wide variety of food cooked to order. All meals are priced under $10 and you get a huge portion when you order. All sorts of meals to choose from and deserts. They also have Vegan options.
The best part is, the proceeds go to help sick children at the Shriners hospitals. Who doesn't support sick kids?
We offer indoor dining in the barroom to eat in an air conditioned (or heated depending on the time of year) area to stay out of the weather. You don't need to stand in line in bad weather to get your food. The kitchen is located inside the main show building, so you can shop our vendors while you wait for your meal to be prepared. Be sure to come hungry to our September show!
