Awesome listing! Arkansas has 2 establishments that should be spotlighted. Jones BBQ in Marianna, Arkansas has been in operation for 110 years. A fire destroyed the building about 3 years ago but they rebuilt. Another establishment by the name of Lassis Inn in Little Rock. They are noted for their fish. Some say they have been in operation since 1905 but the for sure date they actually started to advertise their business was 1931. It bc would be great to see these 2 on an upcoming episode 😊
