The plans were announced earlier this year and the Elkhart location joins two others in Michiana: Warsaw and Mishawaka. It’s the 17th location in Indiana. 

Panda Express isn’t the only newcomer at Shoppes on Six. Noodles & Company announced at the beginning of summer it would lease space at the development and Qdoba was in negotiations to join the development in July.

The McRib gracing the McDonald’s menu again, but folks in Michiana will have a limited time to enjoy it. 

Starting Nov. 9, restaurants in Michiana will offer the sandwiches until supplies run out, according to previous 95.3 MNC reporting

Fans can still expect that same tangy barbecue sauce, pickles and onions, but the McRib will now feature 100 percent pork shoulder rather than pork trim, according to Sara Zwolski, spokesperson for McDonald’s of Northern Indiana and Southwest Michigan.

For just five dollars plus tax, you can get two McRibs or one McRib with fries and a soft drink.
