Perkins American Food Co. Goes Mega Cheesy With New Mega MeltsAtlanta, GA  (RestaurantNews.com)  Cheese lovers unite! It’s going to get cheesy and melty at Perkins American Food Co.™, and you’re going to love it. Your favorite family dining brand is ready to have you melt for its NEW Mega Melts, loaded with layers of premium meats, top quality ingredients, and melty cheeses. Starting September 4, guests can enjoy the limited-time menu starting at $11.99 at participating locations.

Each NEW Mega Melt comes with a choice of premium sides and is paired with complementary dipping sauces including Homestyle Ranch, Creamy Chipotle Ranch, and a new “secret sauce”. Plus, for guests looking to add a little green to their plate (because hey, greens are good, too), Perkins is also launching a new Kale Apple Walnut Salad full of fresh and flavorful seasonal ingredients that bring the flavors of fall to guests’ plates.

“Our NEW Mega Melts are an exciting and modern twist on a familiar favorite. Piled high with quality ingredients and bursting with elevated flavor, they are so huge that calling them sandwiches would be disrespectful,” said Mindy Armstrong, VP of Menu Innovation for Perkins American Food Co.™ “Our guests should prepare to indulge their cravings and feel satisfied as they leave feeling full for as little as $11.99.”

Here’s the mouthwatering lineup to get you drooling:

Buffalo Chicken Melt: Grilled sourdough bread layered with buffalo-infused crispy chicken tenders, crispy Applewood smoked bacon, coleslaw, sliced Pepper Jack and shredded mozzarella cheese. Served with Ranch dressing for dipping.
