Special Event as part of The Kitchen Aid "The Book an The Cook" Festival! http://www.thebookandthecook.com/

And now for something COMPLETELY different. It will be a fun, fur-filled fiesta on Friday, March 22 and Saturday March 23 when Dan Dye and Mark Beckloff, authors (and founders of the world's original chain of bakeries FOR dogs, the grrrowing Three Dog Bakery) trot into town to serve up a salivating delicious six-course meal of their favorite "people" recipes, cut in to "dog friendly" shapes like dog bones and fire hydrants. Why, this night will give a whole new meaning to "doggie bags!" Dan and Mark will on on-paw to present healthful suggestions, delicious all-natural recipes, sign books and give the occasional tummy rub. Bring a photo of your best furry friend and you'll receive some wholesome, fresh baked Three Dog Bakery dog treats to bring back home. In addition to all the tail-wagging,


The Palladium will also make a donation to The Gracie Foundation (Dan and Mark's favorite animal emergency relief charity), plus a donation to our local Morris Animal Shelter. Make reservations early ...we rate this event as 4 Paws Up!
