INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Pacers fans at seven upcoming game can enjoy what one Indianapolis restaurant calls its elevated comfort food.
Tasha “Chef T” Claytor told News 8 on Wednesday that her restaurant, T Street Eats will be serving its hand-breaded chicken wings and its slaw dogs from Section 17’s The Kitchen on the east end of the first fan level of Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
The quick-service restaurant and catering business will serve its made-to-order food starting Friday night during the Pacers matchup with the Golden State Warriors. It’ll also serve from The Kitchen for games on Tuesday, Jan. 18, Jan. 29, Feb. 1 and Feb. 11.
T Street Eats is making its third appearance at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. It was there for the 2024 NBA All-Star Game.
The restaurant has no dining location but had formerly been in City Market. It’s currently working from a shared kitchen for catering only. It’s been working to raise $100,000 to open a new location.
