The new restaurant, open for carryout and delivery, operates out of the kitchen of Fork With It, another full-service restaurant and bar at 415 Third St. SE.

Their new menu includes eight options ranging from a loaded classic and broccoli cheese to a New Mexico with pork green chile sauce and the Southern Comfort sweet potato topped with toasted marshmallows and warm spices. Potatoes, which are 17 to 19 ounces, can be custom built with unique toppings like spam, Andouille sausage, and jerk chicken. Each Russet can be made into a meal with a selection of salads and drinks, as well. Potato orders can be placed through thechunkypotato.com , and soon DoorDash or Uber Eats.
