Dixie Foods International Opens New Restaurant Concept

LAS VEGAS, April 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Dixie Foods International, Inc. (OTCQB: DIXI; the "Company"), which recently announced that it is changing its name to "Preferred Restaurant Brands", yesterday opened its newest restaurant concept - Social Bistro & Wine Bar in Las Vegas.

Note DIXI CEO Ken Antos: "We are excited to launch this new, proprietary fine casual dining concept.  We believe we will be able to replicate the Social experience elsewhere in Las Vegas and in other markets."

Social's web site (www.socialbistrowinebar.com) notes that:

"We believe that is it time to bring families and friends back to the dinner table. Socializing over a meal is one of our moments in life that we can catch up on everyone's day, week, month and sometimes year.  Every day is a special occasion.                              

Welcome to Social Bistro & Wine Bar, we offer a comfortable and cool place to hang out, share the company of others, and enjoy a glass of wine or craft beer from our extensive list, or one of our specialty mocktails, and signature iced teas, while you share from our variety of California-inspired American cuisine. We feature delicious social plates to share, from a selection of our fresh salad creations, to chef-inspired entrees & sandwiches, and our version of flatbreads & social pies, whatever it is; we at Social will keep you coming back for more.  We also feature the West side's only new Social Beer Garden, sponsored by Stella Artois."

Social occupies an approximately 2,700 square foot, indoor/outdoor space at the intersection of the existing Tivoli Village development and its phase two (which currently is under construction and scheduled to open in 2016).  Tivoli Village (http://www.tivolivillagelv.com), which promotes itself as "the ultimate shopping and dining destination" off the Las Vegas Strip, is located in one of the most affluent sections of Southern Nevada, near the master planned community of Summerlin - just 11 miles from the Las Vegas Strip. 

Pre-opening, Social was voted, by a reader poll conducted by Eater Las Vegas, amongst the top most anticipated new restaurants in Metro Las Vegas for 2015.  In its first day of serving food, the restaurant served more than 500 guests.  Antos noted that: "the reception of the customers regarding the food and service at our opening was outstanding. The California inspired American Cuisine definitely will be the key to success of this concept."

Currently, Social is open daily for lunch and evenings until 11pm, and also offers "Social Hour" prices daily form 4-6 pm.
