"Everybody knows what the dinner bell sounds like."
Bobby Adair

I promised you a dinner menu 7 days ago. My deepest apologies for the delay! However, I promise you it will have been worth the wait. As a reminder, our Annual Dinner is To-Go this year! We will be celebrating last years accomplishments [eh hmm, survival tactics] on March 11th. Dinner will be served at 6pm and ready for pick-up at the restaurant of your choosing. Our Facebook Live event will kick-off at 7pm with a short highlight reel and honorary awards.

So let's get to the good stuff. The heart and soul of our event will be highlighting menu items from Someplace Else, Fiddlesticks Bistro, Moy's Restaurant, Mama T's, The Elk and Los Tres Hermanos! Drum roll please...
Plan a date night, celebrate with staff or simply grab a delicious meal that you can eat in your jammies! No matter how you choose to celebrate with us, we appreciate your support and look forward to a night with friends!
Be mindful. Find joy. Believe in kindness!
And of course, keep sanitizing!
