Buena Papa Fry Bar opens in Miami

Context: The company was founded by a husband and wife who set out to make a traditional Colombian "bandeja paisa" one day, but didn't have rice, so they used fries instead.

• They got a boost from appearing on an October episode of "Shark Tank" and securing a deal with investor Robert Herjavec to open franchises.

Details: The grand opening runs from 3pm to 7 pm Friday.

• First responders get free meals, and the first 10 customers in line get free fries for a year.
• There will be a french fry eating contest and a raffle for a trip to Colombia.
