How to display table values?

Hey All!

Using the lessons to create my own plugin, but it's not AJAX based. I'm able to write to the database, but I cannot display it on the front-end. Here's what's in my option_value section:

a:4:{s:26:"restaurant_menu_dish_title";s:4:"Eggs";s:27:"restaurant_menu_description";s:22:"These are awesome eggs";s:21:"restaurant_menu_price";s:2:"$5";s:12:"last_updated";i:1435005136;}

I thought I would be able to echo out the variable $restaurant_menu_dish_title and it would display "Eggs" but nothing happens.

I have it being saved to the database:

$options['restaurant_menu_dish_title']          = $restaurant_menu_dish_title; 

Thanks!
