On July 13, the chic bourbon bar with flavor-packed cuisine and myriad seating options will offer a double bacon cheeseburger with French fries and Equal Parts Brewing beer for 713 Day. At only $7.13 for the mouthwatering trio, you can’t afford to miss it! Speaking of burgers, come back for the ongoing Wednesday lunch special of its signature Bayou Burger for six bucks.

Raise a glass 713 Day on July 13 with a gently priced HugoRitas all day: You guessed it — $7.13. Happy hour at the bar always has tasty bites on offer (order the lobster tacos!). But there’s more.

Mutiny Wine Room

We all know how we gained our independence from Britain in 1776 and celebrate it every July 4th. But did you know that America's Revolution inspired the French Revolution in 1779? Mutiny Wine Room will celebrate Bastille Day July 14 with French wines and one of France's national dishes, sweet and savory crêpes. Vive Le Crêpe!

Ramen Tatsu-Ya

Med Spa Owner

As a small business owner, I get to wear many hats. I became an Aesthetician to gain more knowledge about the services my business was going to provide, thinking that I will only focus on the administrative side of the business. Soon I became the business administrator and the lead Aesthetician. Currently, I am hands-on with our social media and marketing promotions, in addition to my regular facial clients. As time has passed, I realized I needed it to ramp up my services and technology to keep up with our competitors and now we offer a wide variety of Medical Spa services such as injectables and laser treatments.
