Tidbits: Ruffino’s offers limo service … Food truck sells dessert empanadas for charity




They’ll pick you up: Ruffino’s Restaurant has extended their service well beyond the table to your front door with the launch of a new limo service that will ferry guests to and from the restaurant. Patrons of the popular fine dining restaurant can now reserve seats on the limo along with their table—it runs every night and can hold up to 10 people. Find out more about this unique new service at ruffinosrestaurant.com.



‘Bon’ appétit: The new Bon Repas food truck is holding a delicious fundraiser for local cancer support groups from Katie’s Krusaders to Susan G. Komen. With a brand-new, unmistakably pink paint job and a revamped menu focused on the Latin-American pastry known as the empanada, the truck is donating 100% of profits from its dessert empanada sales.
