“PAWS” ON THE PATIO NEXT MONTH AT GREENSIDE’S RESTAURANT

HARMONY, FL – October 5, 2007 –Greenside’s Restaurant is kicking off a new and exciting dining feature on Friday, November 2 with a special event celebrating the arrival of Café Canine. Beginning at 4:00 p.m. with a “ribbon chewing” ceremony, the unveiling of Greenside’s Café Canine will give patrons an opportunity to “paws” on the patio with their pups.

“Since Harmony is a pet-welcome community, establishing Café Canine was a natural evolution for Greenside’s Restaurant,” said Brock Nicholas, general manager of Troon-managed Greenside’s Restaurant.

Osceola County recently approved a “Doggie Dining” ordinance whereby certain establishments could apply for a permit to allow dog and dog owner tandem dining. The County unrolled the plan to allow this feature to only a few select sites. The code mandates appropriate sanitation requirements as well as clearly defines designated outdoor facilities within the dining establishment.

Harmony’s Chairman and Founder, Jim Lentz, was an outspoken proponent of the county’s motion to bring this ordinance to Osceola.

“Dogs are like children for our residents, they are part of the family. People ought to have a place to dine along side their dog if they so choose and I applaud the county’s support of this initiative,” remarked Mr. Lentz.

Greenside’s Café Canine will be open to the general public in addition to Harmony’s residents. Hours of operation will be Monday through Saturday from 4 p.m. – 9 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. – 9 p.m..

All dogs attending the November 2nd event will receive an opening day free gift from Harmony and be able to sample the new limited puppy specialty menu. All dogs must be accompanied by their owners to receive these treats.

Local pet service companies will also be on hand the day of the opening. For instance, Photohound dog photography will be present for dog owners that would like to capture an image with their special pooch during the event.
