Free Puss at the bar tonight between 5 & 7pm only

October 5, 2007

Free Broiled Octopus at the BAR ONLY tonight between 5pm 
and 7pm, with the purchase of any cocktail.  
 
This is an E-Mail exclusive offer and is not advertised at 
the restaurant.  
 
Awesome, tasty and tender broiled fresh Octopus, drizzled 
with a VERY spicy garlic oil, served with Yucca. 
 
Now that you got the inside scoop on this exclusive offer,  
your Friday can be spent a lot less sober!  
Come in early and “pre-heat” with your pus and cock-tail, 
and stick around to get really toasted. 
 
This week-end you will be pleased to know that you’re 
drinking for a good cause….drink in honor of ending 
poverty!  
 
There will be no vegging out in front of the TV tonight. 
REST IS FOR THE WEAK! ..so MOVE people! Get off that couch, 
look under and behind the cushions for some spare change, 
and head to the bar tonight! 
 
Don’t let your “nay-saying” friends tell you that its too 
cold for the Reggae Tent, “cause its open and in full swing 
at 7pm tonight! You tell them that it’s October, Dammit, 
and that means Indian Summer, and that means its actually 
freaking hot as hell outside right now! 
 
Come and hang with the “Rum Culture” outside. These guys 
take drinking so seriously, you'd think they were 
professors tracing rum to its historical antecedents and 
analyzing the cultural ramifications of the oak cask for 25 
year old Aged Appleton in Jamaica.  
 
Don't worry; we don't give a shiit either, we just act like 
we do. Get a fancy rum drink and open up your mind to some 
gossip and trash talking instead. I mean as long as you 
keep drinking, the weekend never ends. Well at least you 
can pretend that's true...maybe double check that alarm 
before heading to the bar. 
 
So come on down to Ripe tonight, we have other dinner 
specials being worked on in the kitchen as we speak!  
The free Pus ends at 7pm, but can be ordered as an 
appetizer afterwards for $6.95. 
 
With any luck, that offer might repeat itself at the 
backyard bar after a few cocktails and some speed dating! 
 
Remember its “Grown Up” Caribbean food with a twist, which 
we Mount Vernonites embrace with vitriolic conviction lest 
our sensitive little palette be poisoned with the likes of 
everyman's fair! 
 
C U Tonite! 
The Ripe Crew. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If the lectures in college were only 30 minutes long and 
followed by free food & booze, I might have actually 
graduated, instead of becoming a shiftless, out of touch, 
no life restaurant newsletter writer.  
But I probably would've still turned out to be a drunk!
