Heads or Tails?

It's breakfast and gambling all in one place - and it's not a casino!


Join the troops from the Napa Guerilla Gay Bar on Saturday, March 27 when we once again invade Compadres Rio Grille (505 Lincoln Avenue in Napa) from 9 to 11 a.m. This time - breakfast and, if you choose, eye-opening cocktails!


So, here's the deal. Compadres is running a special during the weekend mornings during March to promote their breakfast/bunch menu. Here's how it works:

• You enjoy a traditional American or Mexican breakfast, or any one the their very own "special creative dishes"
• They'll flip a coin - you "call it"
• If you win the coin toss your entree in on the house!

Their breakfast menu includes Huevos Rancheros, Omelettes of all kinds, Eggs Benedict and a selection of "$9 Breakfasts". They also have a "French Toast Relleno" which is a peanut butter and banana sandwich dipped in egg batter, griddled, dusted with powdered sugar and topped with house-made cajeta (which is a syrup made from caramelized milk)

And don't forget about their $3 Bloody Marys (vodka), Bloody Marias (made with tequila) and $5.50 Mimosas made with fresh-squeezed orange juice.

Mmmmm, Breakfast!

There's only one thing better than a good old-fashion breakfast . . . an INEXPENSIVE old-fashioned breakfast!

Join the troops from the Napa Guerilla Gay Bar when they invade the Rutherford Grange Hall (8550 St. Helena Hwy in Rutherford - just south of the Rutherford Grill) on Saturday, March 13 anytime from 7 to 11:30 a.m. for a Ranch-Style Breakfast.

The "all-inclusive" breakfast includes "silver dollar pancakes, delicious fresh sausage & bacon, homestyle potatoes, free range eggs, coffe, tea and juice". The price? Just $5 for adults and $3 for kids. They're also offering a family rate of $15. What qualifies as a family? When your Mission Commander asked the folks at the Rutherford Grange this question here is what they said:

"Anyone is welcome at the Grange. If someone is a family, they are a family, no qualifiers . . ."

We like that attitude!

• Funds from the breakfast support the Grange's mission to "provide community programs (that) serve all the people of Napa County. Their projects include:
• A collaborative Meal Program and Healthful Eating Series where Chefs provide Live Preparation Demonstrations to the Public.
• A Children's Chorus encompassing ages 8-18 to enhance children's lives through music and diversity.
• A Lecture Series for the general public. Topics include: a Vintner Series, Solar Power, Wind Power, Water Conservation & Collection, Sustainable Living and Community Gardens/Gardening.
• An avenue of combined low interest loans to make renewable energy and water collection a reality for the families of Napa County.
• An Art, Performing Arts and Music Program for the Children of Napa County at the Grange Hall. Many parents and new members long for a program to replace the dwindling arts and music programs within the public and private schools of Napa County.

Great cause, great food, great fun . . . please join us!
