EVE Artistic Director, Bette Lou Higgins, has written a new book for Arcadia Press's American Palate series, "Lost Restaurants of Downtown Cleveland". It is available at Arcadia Press and at Amazon and at all these stores and libraries!

Along with the book, we have a storytelling program based on the book -- A TOUR OF CLEVELAND RESTAURANTS IN 30 MINUTES -- MORE OR LESS! You'll take a trip back in time to experience these eateries from the past. This program is in the kitchen waiting to be served. Reserve a table for your group by sending us an e-mail to make arrangements for your trip back in time. Be sure to check our calendar page to see when a tour might be in your area.This program was sponsored by a generous donation from Mike & Patti Thomin.

Don't miss the cards and letters from our readers! A big "Thank You" to everyone who sent in their memories to be included in the book. If you didn't get a chance to send any in before, feel free to share your stories and memories with us for our website. We will continue to add them here. In the meantime, enjoy these memories from our readers!

Join our Facebook group for the project where you'll be able to see other people's memories. It's sure to make you nostalgic and hungry! If you would like a little music with your dinner, enjoy this concert by pianist, Nicole Pesce. (She presents a new virtual concert/theme every month on her website so you can always have dinner music!)

We are now looking at doing a sequel to the book! Do you have suggestions/comments/memories about what to include? Remeber to keep your suggestions in the Greater Cleveland area and be sure the restaurant is no longer in existence. Send your ideas to us and we'll keep you posted about the results on our Facebook Group page. Thanks for helping!
