Booked last night for the Wednesday Night $25 Parma & Pot in the Dining Room. The meal was fabulous - great chicken parma (it was real chicken, not some cheap processed looking thing). Came with chips and salad and was really delicious. We bought ourselves a 2nd beer so the meal with 2 beers came to about $33. A real bargain on a Wednesday night.
