Ryan’s, HomeTown Buffet, and Old Country Buffet are inviting families to explore a new adventure on Thursday Family Nights starting July 2, 2015. The buffet restaurants will offer an assortment of fun props including tiger headbands, elephant glasses and other Jungle-inspired headpieces that will transform families into their favorite wildlife creatures. The free Go Wild! Jungle Fun Dress-Up accessories will be available for use in-restaurant every Thursday night from 5 to 8 p.m. at participating restaurants.
“Parents enjoy visiting our restaurants to engage with their children in a family-friendly environment,” said Tom Peterson, Chief Marketing Officer for Ovation Brands. “At no extra cost, the Go Wild!
