According to Christy's website, the chain was founded in the 1980s in Starkville, Mississippi. In 2002, Belleville, Illinois, native Todd Burkis purchased the original Christy's and, with his brother Ryan, has expanded in Mississippi as well as Missouri.
Christy's menu is brief. Besides burgers and fries, it includes chicken tenders, fish and grilled chicken sandwiches and a cheesesteak. I haven't been to the Cottleville location. Readers who have, what am I missing?
