Top O' The Mornin', To Ya!
 
If you want to enjoy a taste of the Irish on St. Patrick's Day, Plaza III The Steakhouse at the Hyatt Regency downtown has some tasty solutions.
 
To celebrate the day when everyone's Irish, Plaza III Chef Mike Silverman is adding a traditional Shepherd's Pie to the menu for Monday, March 17.  And a variety of green drinks will be featured at the Plaza III Lounge, for the Irish at heart.
Shepherd's Pie, also called Guinness Pie, is a delicious Irish blend of beef gravy, seasoned ground and shredded beef mixed with peas and corn and topped with mashed potatoes with a little cheddar cheese in the mash.
 
If you've never tried it before, you're in for a pleasant surprise!

Shifting gears from St. Patrick's Day, Plaza III is opening early for lunch on Easter Sunday, March 23.  The restaurant will serve lunch and dinner from 11:30 a.m. until 7 p.m.
 
"Along with our regular dinner menu, we'll be offering a special plated ham dinner for our guests on Easter Sunday," says owner J. Bard McLean.  "This will be the first time we've opened early for the holiday.  Since there is free parking at the courthouse parking lot on Sundays, we anticipate it will be well received - especially among the people who attend church services downtown and residents in the area."
 
Also, if you bring your church bulletin share it with your server and get 10 percent off your lunch or dinner (excluding alcoholic beverages).
 
Lunch reservations are sure to go fast...so call or e-mail us so we can be part of your Easter activities.
Pre-Fixed Menu a Great Success with Guests
