Almost time
and the time is coming.
and the time is coming.
and i can feel the time coming.
and i know that you can feel the time coming, yourself. – The Mountain Goats, “Fresh Berries for You.”
The Mountain Goats’ charming song expresses the anticipation I feel building as we near the grand opening of The Grilled Asparagus, Winston-Salem’s first vegetarian restaurant, on Monday, Sept. 27. According to a flyer handed out by the restaurant, the festivities will start about 10 a.m. There will be a ribbon cutting, as well as remarks from Mayor Allen Joines and chef and owner Darryl Murray. Best of all, I’m told that there will be free menu samples. Later in the day, live music and a wine tasting are scheduled.
The restaurant will begin serving lunch from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, Oct. 1, it will serve lunch, and will begin serving dinner at 4:30 p.m. The restaurant is at 239 W. Fourth St. It’s phone number is 77-3414.
As the song continues, “It’s gonna be so nice …”
