Restaurants for Research
Lucy's and the ALS Association would like to invite you to visit Lucy's downtown Baton Rouge on Sunday, May 16th between 11am and 10pm. A portion of the entire day's sales benefit the ALS Louisiana-Mississippi chapter. The ALS association is the only national not-for-profit health organization dedicated solely to the fight against Lou Gehrig's Disease.

We would like to congratulate Lucy's very own Chef Michael Domenick who has been awarded "Chef of the Month" by WBRZ. He will be featured every Wednesday morning in May on WBRZ Channel 2 cooking up a Lucy's menu favorite.

MOD Dance Party at Red Star
The dance party is about having a good time. At the Dance Party, the dancers are part of the fun and part of the show. Everyone can participate. All music is provided by scratched up vinyl 45's and 33 lp's. Just nasty, messed up warped old records found at junk shops.
