Haiyan Help

As most of you know, the devastation of Typhoon Haiyan hit very close to home, as I am Filipino - American.  I had not been to the Philippines for about 33 years.  I went back with my sisters this September for a very short trip to bury my mom’s ashes.  Having just left the country, I have a closer connection to the country than I’ve had these 33 years.   It saddens us to see such tragedy and not be able to go there and help.  


We truly appreciate everyone’s concern.  There has been so many people stopping by and asking about my family and how they can help.  


So, we are doing what we can to help.  Next Tuesday, as we all start our Thanksgiving preparations, we will be hosting a Typhoon Haiyan benefit night. 20% of sales that night will go towards a donation to NAFCON  We will be serving our regular menu, and in addition, we will be doing some Philippine specials; sisig, siopao, tocino, & shrimp ukoy.  

So please join us on Tuesday in supporting the relief efforts.  Thank you for your support!

So, as most of you know, I am an American born Filipina.  I just visited the Philippines for a very short trip this last September.  That was my first time back since I was 6 years old.  When I was there, there was all kinds of weather swarming around.  While it caused some flooding, it was really a minor inconvenience compared to the devastation that we are slowly hearing about from Haiyan.

We aren't rich, and we just opened seven months ago, so you know we aren't making a profit yet.  But, we want to do our part to help however we can.  So on Tuesday, November 26, we will be offering Philippine specials, and we will be donating 20% of sales to relief efforts.  Also, when you buy any T shirt for the rest of the month, we will donate half of the sale to relief efforts as well.
