Dandy's Day!!


Monday, September 14, 2009

Steven's jazz combo is playing at a new restaurant called Daddy Macs on Green Valley parkway, just north of Sunset, Sept 18th. The address is 2920 N. Green Valley Parkway Building #6. Would you post a notice on the blog so that if anyone is looking for somewhere new to eat on Friday night, then stop by? The boys are playing from 6:00-8:00 p.m. The restaurant has a reasonably priced menu, with Burgers, Salads, Hot Sandwiches, Pizza and Pastas. Most items are under $10 except for the larger entrees which are around $15.

Thanks.
