The Army & Air Force Exchange Service will soon welcome Wahlburgers to the familyโ€”and superstar brothers Mark and Paul Wahlberg will preview the restaurant and celebrate with the Kaiserslautern Military Community Center during a preview party at 4:30 p.m. Dec. 15.

The Wahlburgers at KMCC’s Exchange shopping center at Ramstein AB will be the popular gourmet burger restaurantโ€™s first location on a military installation.

The brothers will speak to service members and families gathered for the preview party, which will be open to the military community.

โ€œWahlburgers is looking forward to serving the heroes at Ramstein,โ€ Mark Wahlberg said. โ€œWe love our troops, and weโ€™re grateful for this chance to partner with the Exchange and bring a little taste of home to those serving overseas.โ€

Chef Paul Wahlberg and actor brothers Mark and Donnie have opened more than 30 Wahlburgers restaurants, which focus on quality ingredients and housemade recipes.

The business was highlighted on A&Eโ€™s reality TV show โ€œWahlburgers,โ€ which followed the brothers through expanding the franchise, including their work with the Exchange to bring the restaurant to military communities.

โ€œThe Exchange is dedicated to providing the Ramstein community with name-brand dining options and a taste of home,โ€ said Col. Scott McFarland, the Exchange’s Europe/Southwest Asia commander. โ€œWeโ€™re excited to welcome Wahlburgers to the Exchange family.โ€

The KMCC Walhburgers, the chainโ€™s first fast-casual location, will offer favorites including signature burgers made from Chef Paulโ€™s proprietary blend of brisket, short rib and chuck; Wahlbowl salads, fries, tots and shakes.

Wahlburgers is officially open to the public in early January.

A second Exchange Wahlburgers location will open at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., in early 2020, with additional locations in the works.
