German’s Restaurant to open branch in Brooklyn, New York

German’s Restaurant has secured a lease at 793 Utica Avenue, Brooklyn, United States of America to establish the first North American branch of the well-known Guyanese eatery. That restaurant is expected to become operational in February 2018.
The expansion is being funded by Republic Bank Guyana Limited, long standing banker of German’s Restaurant. According to owner and General Manager, Mr. Clinton Urling, the expansion represents a culmination of the company’s desire to open a branch in New York to reach the significant Guyanese and Caribbean American communities residing there.

“We are happy to reach and serve our diaspora customers, and to contribute to the export and exposure of Guyanese cuisine and culture to others around the world. This is intended to be the first of two stores planned to open by the end of 2018,” he noted.
The second US branch is being planned for the Richmond Hill, Queens area of New York.
German’s is a second-generation family-owned Guyanese restaurant that has been in establishment for 57 years. It is well-known for its Guyanese cuisine, and in particular its famous line of soups.
