Well, their BBQ Platters are a HIT, so we've decided to keep the good times rolling - especially since we know you can't pass up this tasty meal. #SupportLocal business and charity by ordering a BBQ Platter of your choice from now until April 30th to help support your community!... For every meal ordered, $10 will be donated back to United Way of Thunder Bay to help support the immediate needs of local people. children, and families!!
