It's been a tough
two weeks for all. Thanksgiving is next week,
November 22, and although New Jersey and Jersey City have taken a big hit this
year, we are still thankful for the blessings we've received.
Please join us
for a traditional Thanksgiving meal here at Casa Dante. We serve from 1pm till
9pm and provide everything you need to make this holiday special. We've held
prices at 2009 levels, so please come with your families and enjoy the day with
us!

My Two Cents
A Thanksgiving Wish for our customers
We
here in the northeastern part of the U.S. very rarely feel the forces of nature
as we have in the past two weeks. Sure we've had our share of snow and rain. We
persevere through those issues and hope for warmer winters, as we had last
year, and clearer skies.
But
this was quite a different attack by nature. We are not normally
prone to or comprehend 80 mph winds, rising tides and prolonged power outages.
In addition, sufferring the loss of lives is totally beyond our scope of
understanding. This is stuff that happens " to the rest of the
world", not us!
But
the new "normal" I keep reading about may include such occurences in
the future and we must prepare ourselves. Remain alert to the changing weather
patterns; take heed to those weather people who, unfortunately, may have
cried wolf too many times in the past; stay close to your familes and
appreciate their presence and worth in your life.
Nothing
is guaranteed but lets make the best of today and tomorrow!
We at Casa Dante wish you and your family a Happy
Thanksgiving regardless of "our" circumstances and hope this holiday
season brings you comfort, peace and joy.
Thanks
for reading!

Owner's Table
For those of
you who "friend" us on Casa Dante Facebook, you know that I take photos of food and goodies at my table
and post them. We use our "like"FACEBOOKto notify
events, parties, holidays and the like. But our "friend" page is
reserved for my own messages to you...usually involves food.....my friends love
these...some of you who have moved to far away places ( Florida, North
Carolina, California etc ) really seem to appreciate them.
If you're on Facebook, check us out. We'd love
to see you there!
