Adding Menu Items to Grand Restaurant Theme by ThemeGoods on WordPress

Here’s a quick tutorial on how to add, delete and update food menu items on the Grand Restaurant Theme by ThemeGoods. While we are generally the only ones that update our client’s websites I find it necessary to provide them with training on how to update on their own. This gives our clients peace of mind know that they have complete control at all times and while other agencies frown on this I feel that it’s just a good ethical business practices.

Erin Express 2016 | Philly’s Biggest Bar Crawl is Back

Accept No Imitations!

I’m happy to announce that Small Talk Media has been asked again to lend a hand in marketing the Official Erin Express. This year we’re happy to announce that there will be specials at all of the participating bars for everybody’s favorite Erin Express beverages; Jameson, Miller Lite and Red Bull!
If you’re not familiar, Erin Express is a St. Paddys day bar crawl that’s been going strong for 30 years. The owners of Cavanaugh’s and Smokey Joes decided that it would be a good idea to order up 10 buses and have them rotate between 15 bars on 2 consecutive weekends surrounding St. Paddys day weekend. The idea caught on and the Erin Express has been a raging success ever since.
This year’s buses will run on March 6th for the official warm up crawl and then again on March 12th.
The buses will run continuously from 12pm – 5:30pm.
The buses are FREE, but I would bring a mountain of cash so you can afford Jamo shots, Miller Lite bottles and RBVs! And don’t forget to buy a round for the ladies, everybody gets loose on the Erin Express.
The buses will stop at each bar on the list every 15 minutes. All you need to do to participate is go to a participating bar, have a drink and jump on the bus when it pulls up outside.
