Jeremy Hamilton never thought he would be in the restaurant business, but over the last six years, he's fallen in love with serving homecooked cuisine to Bonham, Texas. On this episode of Bonham Now, we highlight the owner of Panther Row Eatery. We actually recorded this podcast episode at the restaurant. I’m not sure if it was the smell of hand-breaded chicken friend steak or the fact every single person who walked through the door spoke to Jeremy Hamilton or patted him on the back, buit was neat to see the restaurant come to life.
