We welcome another new member to our chamber bunch. Rico’s Kitchen, owned by Juan Rico Castillo, is open in the former Waffles ‘n More space. He serves some of Chrissie’s favorites and has added his own touch to the menu. With his expanded hours you can try one of his daily specials, order something new from the menu or still get breakfast all day long. Please take time to stop, eat and meet Rico and his staff and welcome them to Central City.
