Celebrations at Cracker Barrel, 619 S. Ridge Rd
2023-11-02 18:30 - 20:00 (America/Chicago)
Ever wonder why Men Make Dinner Day and National Deviled Eggs Day are celebrated on the same day? Really? They must be talking about straight men. We, on the other hand, make great…Reservations. However, Cracker Barrell doesn’t take reservations so we have to call ahead to get seated. You can see their menu at: prod-cbdigitalstore.azurefd.net/-/media/Project/cb-brandsite/brandsite/pdfs/lunch-and-dinner-dinein-menu.pdf?rev=aba7654407d448c6aeb9ba88a04cc1de&hash=CF283D7498995FA81F68D305F8A8B6130

Lunch With The Guys, Niche Bistro, 124 S. Broadway
2023-11-10 11:30 - 13:00
I thought we should celebrate Science Day for Peace & Development by going to lunch at Niche. The National Institute of Culinary and Hospitality Education (NICHE) partnered with Envision “to create the world’s first culinary arts program dedicated to providing professional training to individuals who are blind and visually impaired”. You may know that NICHE is part of WSU TECH. I chose the Bistro. I thought we should go and learn what’s going on in downtown. We may even get a tour. They don’t take reservations, so whoever gets there first hold a table for eight, as a beginning. You can see their menu at:nicheks.com/wp-content/uploads/bistro/Bistro%20Menu%20Fall%2023.pdf.
