I'm working with a small group of local Virginia Beach business owners, and they asked me to help find a restaurant for a neighborhood menu program we’re putting together.

The idea is simple: the restaurant receives 5000 professionally printed takeout menus at no cost, and the printing is covered by a few nearby businesses that advertise on the menu.

Can you recommend a restaurant with a great take-out business that might be a good fit?
