"Housed at 350 East Louisiana Street in McKinney, the 10,000-square-foot Local Yocal BBQ & Grill will serve as a one-stop shop for Local Yocal, containing a butcher shop, restaurant, market, a sprawling wine room, and a private events space used for monthly pop-up dinners. I learned the menu will feature smoked meats, burgers, Southern comfort food, and sandwiches with quick-serve lunch options; lunch service will be expedited with ordering and food brought to your table, while dinner will be more traditional with a hostess and reservations. An official opening date hasn't been announced, but a June 9 steak dinner by Chef Adam West will give diners an idea of what to expect and will showcase the butcher's best beef." - Amy McCarthy
