“We’re excited to bring our Big Easy inspired brunch to the beautiful Florida Panhandle” said Peter Gaudreau, CEO of Ruby Slipper Restaurant Group. “Destin is a natural next step for our expansion along the Gulf Coast with restaurants already in Mobile, Orange Beach and Pensacola. We think the Destin area captures that sense of New Orleans hospitality and southern charm that Ruby Slipper is all about.”
