We pledged 35% of all of our proceeds for the day to the "Dining with DASI". So from Us at Salt to all of You....thanks for making it a successful evening and really helping a great cause that provides our county with a much needed service!

Bradley & Laurie, and the entire Salt family.

Phelps did "Good" but David O'Conner is THE MAN!! First of all look at that trophy compared to that puny medal. And let's also remember, David has to defend his title EVERY YEAR, Phelps only has to every 4 years. David trained hard, and it showed on game day, downing 8 hot dogs and buns in 7 mins in the "1st Annual Salty Dawg Labor Day Weekend Hot Dog Eating Contest". Here he is proudly displaying his trophy after the contest, walking it around Salt with his chest all puffed out, showing it off to the kitchen staff and rubbing it in the faces of all of the other "Scarfers". We thank everyone who came out to participate as well as those that came just to watch and cheer them all on...A fun time was had by all! Also thanks to Local Radio Station 91.9 WNTI for coming out and MCing for us. Mark your calenders for next year...Labor Day Weekend!!!

We also want to thank the Mayor and Council and other members of the Byram Township Municipal Offices for coming out and joining us for our "Grand Opening"....This really is a great town not just to live in, but to do business in....So thanks to them for welcoming us to the town!!

Salt HAPPY HOUR.....What exactly does this mean?.....well, it means $2.00 McSorley's Drafts (Did you say $2.00 McSorley's drafts?) Yes, $2.00 pints of THE McSorley's Ale. Is that all you ask? HELL NO, we will also be doing "Buy one thing off the bar menu and get another one (of equal or lesser value) for free." That means you can bring that pretty little girl at the office, or that cute guy you've been eyeing up at work, buy them something off the bar menu, and get your own item for free....what a deal! There will also be daily wine and drink specials!!

So come check it out, meet some friends, get your Irish up with a pint of McSorley's, get some great eats and just enjoy!!! That's what Salt is all about!
