For those of you who still haven't discovered what makes Branson so unique, let me add another sample to the "daily life" of this restaurant owner. I came back form running an errand today and saw we had a couple of tables filled in the dining room. We like that, by the way. An empty restaurant is a bad thing, if you're an owner. I also noticed that I knew both parties--not that unusual in a town of 6,000.
What made it so "Branson-esque", though, is that the 2 parties discovered they knew each other, as well. Gail Hinshaw and Sheldon Tucker, both great friends of ours, saw each other for the first time in years. They had both lived in the same Kansas town of around 500 people 20 or so years ago. This kind of thing seems to happen here all the time. Janet and I will talk about people we haven't seen in a while, and like magic, they seem to show up the same day. It's just so Branson! By the way, Tucker is a wonderful performer at the Waltzing Waters theater--please check him out sometime. Gail is one of the owners of "The Mountain", a data storage facility that I got to tour last week--very cool, and mostly inside a mountain!
Anyway, just a reminder about our restaurant. It is not just a place to go and have a meal. Rather, it's a place to have a true "dining experience". The atmosphere is second to none, the music is outstanding, and the food is pretty darn good, too. We have been honored to have been written up by the Springfield paper, and have won awards as "Best of Branson" by 417 Magazine. Also, currently, we are ranked 4th in Branson out of over 300 restaurants in Branson, by Trip Advisor.
Please come and check us out. We guarantee a wonderful experience, and you just never know who you might run into. Maybe someone from Kansas that you haven't seen in 25 years or so. It is, after all Branson, and it is The Gardens Restaurant. Joe
