Ed & Kay's is near the last exit as you pass Benton heading to Texas. We drove our one exit to soon and were ready to give up when we spotted Ed and Kay's at the last minute. The service was a little cool but not unfriendly. We tried the pies and had a cup of coffee.
"Behold: an Ed & Kay mile-high meringue pie"

"Here is a slice of the lemon meringue pie. It quivers when the waitress sets it down on the table, and tends to fall apart as soon as you touch it with a fork."

"Family-owned since Pat & Inez Newcomb opened the place in 1952, Ed & Kay's is located just south of Benton on the access road to I-30. It has won statewide awards not only for pie, but for best coffee and best waitresses."
