The kitchen got a little too hot this morning at the Flying-J Truck Stop in Fort Chiswell at exit 80.
Firefighters say a fire broke out in the cooking area of the kitchen a little before 3 a.m.
Flames spread through the ceiling of the restaurant and extending into the rest rooms.
The fire department believes it was a grease fire, but is still investigating.
We're told the restaurant area is closed, but the convenient store is still open for business.
