Visit Hot Springs

Rise and shine, it's Feast Month time! 🥞 Feast Month celebrates Hot Springs' restaurants all November, thanks to our sponsors AY Magazine and Ben E. Keith! Dive into our delicious dining scene in AY Magazine's article, 'Feast Month is Back, Highlighting Spa City’s Most Delectable Dining Spots!' "Hot Springs has long been Arkansas’ playground, be it for things salacious, such as famous gangsters looking for cocktails and casinos, or therapeutic, as in the park’s famous thermal waters, and everything in between. No matter what brought them to town, though, everyone from Al Capone to Babe Ruth to D. Wayne Lukas to Kevin Costner eventually indulge the same common desire: to eat and eat well. The culinary scene has willingly met these and other famous appetites through the years, not to mention millions more held by regular-folk visitors, high-rolling gamblers, lake lovers and generations of residents. Over time, the city became known less for dames and dice and more for food, broadening its reputation through the years with an impressive collection of fare. Just when diners think they have got the place pegged, such as its longstanding reputation for great barbecue and steaks, restaurateurs turn up the heat." -AY Magazine 🔗 Read more: aymag.com/hot-springs-feast-… #VisitHotSprings #FeastMonth
