The name says it all. Let’s get happy! Why? If you are ready for your evening’s nuptials a little earlier than the traditional dinner hour, you win! First off, it’s reported to be to be much healthier to eat early. And then, in an effort to entice diners in earlier than the normal dinner rush, many restauranteurs create discounted menus. To celebrate this win-win we’ve selected our favorite Happy Hour offerings, let us know if we missed your favorite.
