Our group was so big with 28 people that their restaurant wasn't big enough to serve all of them. Thus, they moved our group to the conference room.
When they had returned to the center after their day out the whole bunch of them were still excited and happier than larks.
Beth, Adele and Carol were telling me about their experience there. The inmates that prepared and served the food were people that had earned the right to be there. It is part of a program to give skills for them after they are released out of prison.
The waitresses were so nice and cute to everyone it was easy to feel warmth, comfort and laughter with them. The Correction Officer had everyone rolling in the isles with his humor.
The cooks were laughing with the group while they served up some scrumptious food. The environment was simply wonderful. The food was delicious with plenty to eat. The prices of the food especially for the amount of food served was a (should we say it?) a real steal! Big slabs of ham, eggs, drinks, sandwiches, fries that tantalized your taste buds and brownies. Wow! Big, big brownies. They shared one brownie with eight people and still had a bite or two left. It was a big menu with a lot to choose from. Bytheway, they use only plastic utensils. The help cannot accept tips, so if tips are made they are donated to the Primary Children's Hospital.
The employed restaurant folks said they are making a license plate with our Harman name on it to send to us later. Everyone bought a shirt that had the icon on the back with the name Serving Time on it. Danna bought an apron and gave it to Cindy that works in our kitchen.
The ladies that I interviewed said they want to go back and soon too. They give the restaurant a 5 plus star rating.
