BRANSONBULLETIN BRANSONBULLETIN INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR Did you know Branson has tastes from around the globe to the Ozarks? Find Mediterranean fare at Vasken's International Deli, a local favorite serving a tasty menu of delicious gyros (especially the Firehouse Gyro—a spicy, savory combination of lamb and beef), chicken shawarma, and Greek salad. For an Indian culinary journey, visit India Clay Oven. The extensive menu of traditional Indian cuisine includes delicious tikka masala, pakora and warm naan bread. Order off the menu or go for the fresh, hot lunch buffet. Serving Japanese steak and sushi, Wakyoto's offers authentic Asian cuisine and specialties. Try teriyaki entrees, tempura shrimp, edamame and the wasabi special roll, a signature menu item. RECORD-SETTING ATTRACTIONS Branson is home to several noteworthy roadside attractions: The Ozarks' largest rooster, better known as Mr. Peck, stands 43' tall at The Chicken House. Stop to snap a photo by the city's feathered fiberglass friend, and try the restaurant's bacon, biscuits, brunch and brews along with their farm fresh chicken. Music is instrumental to Branson's character (no pun intended), which is why the world's largest banjo is located inside the Fun Spot at Grand Country Resort. Towering 47' in the air, it's a working replica of a Gibson-style banjo. It's a great stop for a unique vacation photo! Check out the world's largest fork and meatball outside Pasghetti's. Eat in one of the restaurant's Italian- themed dining rooms. While you wait for your food, try out the game room and indoor Ferris wheel ride. CATCH A SHOW With 100+ shows in town, it's difficult to narrow down your options for a pick! If you're in the mood to be wowed, check out Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai. There's comedy and tribute shows, illusionists and talented country artists. Choose from full productions such as Legends in Concert, Comedy Jamboree, The Haygoods, or Hamners' Unbelievable Variety Show. Enjoy the show! 40 WHAT'S UP! AUGUST 29-SEPTEMBER 4, 2021
