Tonight we celebrated a Birthday with longtime Rupperts guests. We reconnected with our friend Todd Ramlow who worked many years with us on 7th street and is now lending a hand here. Derrick made amazing Basil Gimlets as Martin-Lane lapped up the Restaurant stories and at one point answered a question with, "Let me consult my co-workers"–this cracked her up!

We still have a few spots open for October 8th–it is a Thursday and we would love to have you!
