Checking out new restaurants is always fun, and apparently we aren’t the only ones who think so. It was a packed house for our Friends4Lunch event last month at Lila Mae’s Southern Kitchen & Lounge (@LilaMaesSouthernKitchenAndLounge). Our group enjoyed their authentic Nashville Hot Chicken and other southern fare such as shrimp and grits, smothered pork chops, greens, peach cobbler, and many other favorites. We also had a BLAST at Rock ‘n’ Joe (rocknjoe.com) for our Friends4Drinks event in August, which featured Music Bingo with The Music Bingo People. We were singing the songs at the top of our lungs! Rock ‘n’ Joe proves to be such a versatile venue for meetings and events. Thank you to all our clients, friends, and guests who joined us at these networking opportunities!
