What a glorious morning to plant for future beauty! Keep Decatur Beautiful, City of Decatur Parks and Decatur Conference Center partnered to start a sweet little patch of bluebonnets on the north side of the conference center. In a few years, we will add a bench and we will have a safe place to take spring bluebonnet pictures. Thank you to everyone who came to help and special thanks to our The Rotary Club of Decatur Texas members! #rotariansatwork
The Rotary Club of Decatur Texas is hosting the annual Spring Event with us today. Come on out and enjoy the fun!
“Build your own” buffets are not usually our thing because we typically need to get a large number of guests through the line in a short amount of time. Since Lighthouse Acres Ministries, Inc. Mom Prom was all about the party, it was a great setup for them. Our culinary and front of house team members turned sandwiches into an event.
Let us make your next party the talk of the town. Call us at 940-393-0280!
Salmon Prep
Here's a great tip from our executive chef, Chris Taylor, for skinning a salmon filet! Two notes: 1) gloves help the process; and 2) the discoloration on the cutting board is from the salmon skin.
