About This Program

Jim & Alvina Braun Glatt

Jim & Alvina Braun Glatt are the owners of the Kroll's Kitchen chain of restaurants with locations in Fargo and Bismarck, North Dakota. Kroll's Kitchen is famous for its hearty home cooking but what really pulls the customers in is Kroll's justifiably famous Knoepfla Soup. Although the dumplings are no longer made by hand, demand for the thick creamy soup continues around the world. The Glatt's have shipped gallons of soup to customers as far away as Paris who long for a taste of Kroll's knoepfla soup.
