Good for the heart marketing — free dinner!
Location:
3320 Truxtun Ave. #150,
Bakersfield, CA 93301
Valentine's Day isn't just for couples — or making a lot of money. The Garden Spot Restaurant is offering a free dinner of chicken, salad, pasta, muffins, bread and dessert bars to singles Thursday night. Beer and wine will be sold. It's from 6 to 9 p.m. and you need reservations. Call 323-3236.
I got to talk to owner Keith Barnes this morning. He's a single guy. Here's a summary of what he had to say. Q. How did you come up with this idea? A. I was in the shower on Monday morning thinking about what I was going to do for Valentine's Day. And I was wondering how to bring people to the restaurant on that day. And I came up with this. Q. Why do it? A."It's good for the heart in more ways than one." — Christine Peterson 4 comments from 2 users

Who knows what people may try, robbwillis. But barring breaking news that I just can't predict, we'll plan to have a reporter there that night to check it out. — Christine Peterson posted by

Sounds like a good opportunity for a couple to have fun pretending to meet.
