Dear Friends,

This is a very busy time of year and this past weekend with beautiful weather encouraged many of us to head to the beach or the mountains, and many of us did.

Chef Memo's has received some 15 requests from friends who were unable to attend the "Holiday Gathering" due to other commitments, to see if we could offer our Special Menu this week as well.

Chef Memo's Restaurant is delighted to accommodate those friends and all others who would like to partake of the Special Menu by continuing to serve it this Thursday the 27th, Friday the 28th and finishing on Saturday the 29th of December, from Noon until 8:00 p.m.

Please call 2771-1185 and tell us which day you prefer, approximate time you would like to arrive, and your choice of meal.

Show your partner or friends just how much you care for them.

Happy New Year!
