To Yelp or Not to Yelp

I had the best experience recently on Yelp. As you all know, I will be starting up breakfasts at Moon River Inn on September 25th. It occurred to me that if I want to be successful, I had better offer menu items that people actually want to eat. As Michael Franks once said (sang): "What good is your song, if it ain't in my key?" So, I reached out on Yelp asking everyone what it is they want (or don't want) to see on a breakfast menu. The responses were overwhelming and very helpful. I went back to the drawing board and tweaked the menu a bit more. I wasn't so far off base, but I was headed in the "no pork" breakfast meats direction. 'No pork' offerings are good options, but there is a large part of the population who wouldn't hear of breakfast without bacon -- some even requested SPAM... Yes, SPAM. Bacon remains and will sit alongside Apple Chicken Sausage and Turkey Sausage (good, flavorful ones), not those bland, bad textured patties. I'm excited; I hope you are too! Looking forward to seeing you Sunday, September 25th at Moon River Inn. If not then, make a point of checking me out in the near future. I could use your support. Kiss! Chef Vira
