Our very own TOT Meet and Greet group held their latest meet up last Wednesday at Nitza’s Pizza.

Well it was another great meet up last Wednesday at Sweet Lumpy’s with the TOT’ers. As usual the kitchen pumped out some awesome food for the packed house. For me it was the pulled pork, with a healthy helping of the sweet barbeque sauce, while some of the ladies preferred the cool crisp salads. [...]
This week’s ToT Meet and Greet was in Old Town Temecula’s Texas Lil’s. What a great place to mix and mingle in this western-styled saloon/restaurant.

The first thing that’s noticeable about the new Pizzeria Venti Restaurant is how much the décor changed from when it Pizzeria Venti was Anthony’s Ristorante. The interior walls have been removed and large windows line the walls. It’s now bright, light and airy. As I walked up to the friendly faces behind the counter I [...]
Taste of Temecula’s Lunch Meet and Greet last Wednesday was held in the heavens. High upon a mountain top with views all around is Oak Mountain Winery. A laid back and relaxing venue we were able to network with one another at the outdoor wine pavilion while sipping their 2008 Zinfandel. I happen to love [...]
