“I immediately fell in love with barbecue after tasting it. I knew opening a Dickey’s Barbecue would be the perfect opportunity to share the tasty experience of Texas style barbecue with my community,” said first time franchisee, Kyong Kim. “I’m so excited about the grand opening and all that we have planned for the community -- especially on Saturday when Mr. Dickey stops by for all the big giveaways.”

Prior to owning a Dickey's Barbecue, Kim ran a privately owned restaurant in Sunnyvale. She is originally from Korea and immigrated to the Bay Area over 30 years ago.
