A Yummy Way to Help Your Neighbors in Need

Beginning mid-August, our buddy Big Yummy will be bringing his awesome skills as a chef to a brand-new venture here in Marion: a restaurant with no prices on the menu! You pay what you can, and pay it forward for the next person if you're able. But no prices doesn't mean that food's not top-knotch! This guy knows how to bring the yummy, for sure!
Dining hours TBA, and everyone eats, regardless of your ability to pay.
