My husband and I went to your store for Vetran's Day breakfast today. This is our second year attending your generous meal. We were well treated, with excellent service and food. We appreciate that you honor us this way......We will of course go to your business place in the future as we always do. The servers were all working hard and steady to seat and feed everyone. The restroom were in surprising great shape, well kept up and clean.It appeared like a manager was at the register when we entered. Our server was Candi.Thank you for the email reminder of the breakfast. Sincerely,

Karen Overton :klomail2@aol.com
