With 64/40 reopening next Monday, we all have a reason to smile...maybe even celebrate.
Even the invariably stoic Vince Bommarito is getting into the act. Next week, from Monday, December 7 through Friday, December 11, Tony’s will feature a four-course meal for $64.40, and a three-course meal for $40.00. These prix fixers are indeed fixed, with no substitutions allowed. The entree for the four-courser is a parmesan-encrusted lamb chop with herbed risotto; the three-courser featuresa green peppercorn marinated beef tenderloin. For reservations and complete menu details, call 314-231-7007. This info is not available online.
Those who have had the pleasure of meeting Joy Grdnic, owner of The Fountain on Locust, wouldn't be surprised to learn that she is also a syndicated radio comedienne. Her free-spirited, whimsical nature is evident in her decor (she painted that mural), her menu (dill pickle soup, anyone?), and in her special events, the most recent being the Highway "Farty" Party and Giveaway.
Customers visiting the restaurant now through Friday, December 4, at 4 pm can enter to win free ice cream martinis for two and a free night's stay at The Hampton Inn & Suites at Forest Park (5650 Oakland Avenue). (And what better place to view that ribbon cutting?)
On Sunday evening from 5 pm - 9 pm, FoL will feature several Highway "Farty" specials: World's Smallest Ice-Cream Cones for .40; ice cream martinis for $4.40; and homemade ham & bean soup for .40 with the purchase of a meal. Couldn't get much fartier than that. -- George Mahe
