Happy Holidays my friends! Can you believe it’s already here?! Even when the weather gets cool we keep it warm, cozy, and fun in the restaurants where pretty twinkly lights and seasonal tunes make it feel like a tropical Christmas. 
 
At all three locations, these next few weeks we are busy!  The restaurants are each participating in local toy and food pantry drives. We are also getting ready for our beloved Billy Claus and the LuLuBelles to make their appearance. And then it’s NOON YEARS EVE where the beach ball drop gets more epic every year. It’s one of the best parties of the year. 
 
Wintertime at the beach always feels special. I hope you can make it in to see us during this magical season! 
 
All of my (Winter) Gumbo Love,
