Bud's Re-Opening February 9th

Faubourg St. John neighbor, Shannon McGuire would like you to know the original Bud’s Broiler is reopening its doors FEBRUARY 9, for Endymion Saturday, after completing an extensive renovation.

A fire at the Mid City location last year forced owner Shannon McGuire to close the doors of the restaurant. However, after months of clean up and updating, “We’re back in business,” says McGuire.

Bud’s Broiler was opened in 1952 on City Park Avenue by Alfred “Bud” Saunders. Since then, Bud’s has become a dining main stay. Generations of New Orleanians know Bud’s for its cooking slogan, “High Quality Meat and Glowing Charcoal Make the Difference.”

McGuire stresses this attention to detail has guided the renovation and the reopening. “Bud’s isn’t just about the burgers. It’s about the friendly service and the familiar atmosphere,” says McGuire. “We had to stay true to the restaurant that everyone has come to know and love, so when you walk in before Endymion rolls, you’ll feel at home again.”

With the help of All Dry Water Damage Experts, the restaurant now looks better than ever. If you had a favorite menu order number before, you can stop by February 9, Endymion Saturday, for the reopening at 500 City Park Avenue.

Bud’s Broiler reopens on February 9, 2013 and is located at 500 City Park Avenue in Mid City. For more information, please contact Shannon McGuire at budsbroilercityparkavenue@gmail.com or visit http://www.facebook.com/BudsBroilerNewOrleans

Bud’s Broiler started in 1952 by Alfred “Bud” Saunders, has seven locations across the New Orleans area. Bud’s is known for its butterflied hot dogs and its quarter-pound hamburgers, grilled over charcoal and served on toasted buns. More information on Bud’s Broiler is available on Facebook at Facebook.com/BudsBroilerNewOrleans.

NOLA.com also did a feature on the Bud’s Broiler Re-Opening…

Parkway Partners December Newsletter

Posted in Featured with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on December 4, 2012 by katrinafilm

Check your home landscape for Buck Moths pictured left. They are a sure sign of the need to treat your trees..

Parkway Partners offers the Save Our Trees program to care for trees: spraying, termite treatment and fertilization. Information will be mailed and posted to our website in January.

The insects are commonly found in deciduous trees like Oaks, Willows, Wild Cherries, and shrubs like azaleas, and are known to strip a landscape of its leaves. Older trees are especially prone to dying from an infestation, while younger trees often recover. However due to the caterpillars’ intense sting, people usually prefer to eradicate their landscape of these unwanted pests.

Now is the time to prune your trees.

Young trees should be studiously addressed to achieve the desired shape and encourage the dominant leader without bark inclusions. Please see the American Grove article for further information.
