The show you like to watch can now be your favorite place to eat. It took the Robertson family to finally come up with a reason to visit Monroe and West Monroe. That reason is good food and what promises to be a unique dining experience at "Willie's Duck Diner". The restaurant opened its doors with a grand opening and ribbon cutting this past Friday

The restaurant is owned by Duck Dynasty TV Star Willie Robertson. It features a great selection of down home Southern Style cooking. Among the great comfort foods available are fried pork chops, frog legs, meatloaf and naturally duck.

A representative with the West Monroe Chamber of Commerce, Courtney Hornsby, says the diner will just enhance the Duck Dynasty experience for visitors who come to the area. The popularity of the TV show has created quite a tourism niche' for that part of the state. Hornsby said in a story reported by the Louisiana Radio Network,

"From what we're hearing from phone calls, emails, Facebook posts etc this is going to be a huge plus for our community and certainly and very popular destination,"

Fans can "like" the restaurant on Facebook or like the restaurant in person by visiting 125 Constitution in West Monroe. The hours of operation are from 11am until 9pm
