Great Staff=Great Service

Here it is February and I realize the last item on the Blog was about New Year.  How fast time is moving in our first year the the TBox.  Thanks to all our local diners who Chef Scott and I are getting to know pretty well.  As always, we will keep working to make your experience here a memorable one with great service and Scott's ever-changing and always delicious food .  Also, this is a great time to thank our staff here at the TBox.  A majority of them have been here since the beginning and are working right through our "slow" season with great visions of what's to come.  So thanks Joe, James, Luke, Derek (for your cooking and your pictures), Matt, Jenny, Brette, Olivia, Loni, Lisa, Corina, E.J. for your commitment to this place.

Valentine's Day is approaching and, yes, we will be open on that Sunday, February 14 for a special dinner.  And, "gasp", we are taking any and all reservations.  Come join us for a great dinner and some wine.  It's a good chance to "try us" again and see what's different on the menu or to venture in for your first experience.  Come as a couple or, buck the trend and put together your V-Day group for a great excuse to get together.

Don't forget that TBox is offering Happy Hour Monday-Friday from 4-7.  Chef has put together a great nosh menu with $6 apps including the best tacos in town.  Drink specials include $3 beers (20 oz style), $6 glasses of wine and $5 house cocktails (we leave that one up to Liv and Matt).  Another great snack is Scott's Big Time Burger--not always around but a great treat when you find it here--Ground Steak, House Steak Sauce, Cheddar, Smoked Bacon (of course) and House Made Pickles--Bar Side Only so grab your seat at the bar after work and try it out.

Happy 2010

Happy New Year Flagstaff.  The new year was brought in with style here at Tinderbox.  We had our first New Year's Service which consisted of 3 seatings and an incredible menu from the kitchen.  The 10:00 seating was great with some staying around to ring in the New Year with the TBox staff.  2010 should be a great year.  Look for exciting changes at TBox starting with a new website.  We hope to have it operational within the next month or so.  When finished you can check the ever-changing menu to see what Chef has planned for you that night as well as other great features.  The drink menus are also changing--look for some exciting cocktails and offerings from Matt and Olivia.  As for the kitchen, yes, the menu is constantly changing so watch for your old favorites or, of course, find some new ones.  The featured item running now are the Hog Jowls (or Pig Cheeks); braised and delicious this is another Flagstaff first--come on in and expand your eating comfort circle.  With all the snow coming to our area, it is a great time to come on in and have some satisfying American Comfort Food-Redefined!
