10 Years of James Brown’s Place

April 30th, 2008

Well lets get started with the items of importance! The Five T-shirt winners have been selected. If you didn’t turn in your name for the drawing, it’s your own fault. Winners will be listed in next weeks update and our web site news. Congrats to our five winners for those of you that didn’t enter “Sucks To Be You”.

May 1st is our Ten Year Anniversary, no applause - just come in to eat, really not sure what to do. Probably be doing lots of menu specials or maybe more t-shirt give a ways. When I decide, i’ll tell you. Celebration? We will celebrate all month with Cinco de Mayo menu items, anniversary lunch specials. Help me come up with ideas, I can use the help. Email me back or stop in.

LUNCH
For My Lunch Time Regulars We are bringing back
“The Dog Days of Summer Menu” which is an assortment of really awesome hot dog & specialty sausage recipes and we are introducing our “Burger Buster Menu” which is an assortment of Hamburger recipes for lunch.

Here’s a challenge: Eat your way through either menu [dog or burger] and get a free James Brown T-Shirt. It’s already been done one of the guys from the Harris Corporation. He is one of our lunch time “Pigs Trough Crew” and he’s a “little guy”! Who’s going to be next? Ask Riley, my lunch time server, for a “entry card” to log your accomplishments. When its full, get your shirt, FREE. Oh, we are still waiting for your pictures for the web site!

We Are Also now featuring Ice Cream Floats For Lunch. Root beer, Orange, Pepsi-Cherry, Pepsi-Sierra Mist.

OUTSIDE SEATING
Many of you are asking about the outside seating. We want to set up as much as you do, but because of the high winds in April and early May it’s not always possible. The outside canopy is coming down this weekend hopefully. Weather permitting. This last cold snap slowed things down. It’s going to be a day to day thing. You will be the first to know.

FRIDAY DINNERS
Don’t forget to print out your “dollar off coupon” for Friday night dinner specials. Many of you already have. Thanks! Friday nights at my place are one of Rochester’s best kept dinner secrets. BBQ Ribs, Fish Fry’s, Seafood Specialties And Victor, Our Friday Night Chef features many great “Dinner Specials” see below.

VEGETARIANS
No, I’m not gonna make fun of you. For those of you who lean toward vegetarian dishes, please let me know if there is any desire for more items. The vegetarian black beans and rice has been very well received. For those of you who tried the spicy eggplant dish we served last week, let me know if there is any interest in having that more frequently or permanently.

OTHER STUFF
This is the last weekend for porridge next week we hope to feature JB’s Nature Bowls. Order lots of them, because the servers hate to make them : Seriously they are a great and refreshing starter to share for breakfast before you get down to the serious business and you all know what I mean.

Also, considering adding Green chili sauce and Ranchero sauces on a regular basis let me know if there is any interest.
