Happy Birthday, Murphy's!
On December 1 Murphy's in the VA Highlands celebrated 40 years of incredible food and memories! To honor this, they want are offering a special for their long-time customers (as well as new ones). Through the end of the year order their Chicken Dinner for 4 or Meatloaf Dinner for 4 for $40 each. THIS IS A STEAL! The dinners will include the Meatloaf or Chicken, sides of potatoes and green beans and dessert of cookies (no salad or rolls like some of their other to-go meals). Their idea with this is also a perfect way to gift a meal such as a neighbor that is shut-in or elderly, a family that is in need, or if you want to do something nice during the holidays for your staff or for a church/non-profit/community organization that wants to feed a lot of families in need. Order here!
