Free food, just not for you

Posted on by

For those unfamiliar with philly, a bunch of restaurants in center city (etc.) are part of the same organization known as, in this example, as Starr Restaurants.  Well it’s that time of year again when they have their drive for philabundance and you can win dinner at all of the 13 Starr restaurants.  Now, often they will give out treats on the street to draw people in, hence my posting of this (along with my love of several of the Starr restaurants).
HOWEVER!

In my opinion, as a reader of this blog, perhaps we could all give back and help others get some free food.  Thus I give you the following message sent out by Starr (feel free to mention us as a reason to donate, they won’t know whats going on, so it’ll be funny to watch them squirm)
