Elizabeth Dishes Tips For Feeding Your Family Right (WUSA-9)

Angela McKeown is a busy mom who wants to put a healthy dinner on the table each night.  But shuttling 4 active and growing boys to their many activities, means she’s often at the drive through, justifying her choice of Mexican take-out because ‘at least it has lettuce and tomatoes.’
So WUSA-9’s Living Well team brought […]

Happy Blogoversary!

Way back in ‘07 when we talked about the idea of launching a blog for our Let’s Dish! stores, it seemed like an intimidating task.  Heck, most of us didn’t even know what a “blog” really was … or did… or something.  But as we investigated our options, we learned that a blog would not […]

Respect Your Elders (And help them eat well)!

Most of us owe a whole lot to our parents and grandparents.  They raised us and provided for us and so sometimes it’s nice to give back.  We’ve realized that Let’s Dish! can help with that.

Since we opened in 2004, we’ve had a loyal following of seniors who truly adore our product.  They typically split […]

The Bearer of Good News

Last week, I was invited to an elementary school in South Riding, VA. The principal called an “emergency” faculty meeting after school.  But this wasn’t an emergency in the traditional sense; she just wanted to be sure everyone was there… and on time… so that I could deliver some exciting news.
You see, at this school there’s a very […]

Getting Even More Value From Dishing

I’ve been thinking about Let’s Dish! math and the cost per meal. Let me start by sharing the fact that in this economy, I have become scrooge. I am now buying my kids clothes only when the pants become too short or too small or if a change in season demands different clothes. I go […]

To the Unsung Heroes fighting to eradicate breast cancer!

As I read the stories that have been submitted to the Pink Dish! Campaign, and I look around at the vast amount of publicity breast cancer is receiving this October, I am reminded of where I was last year.

Proud To Be a Part of Pink Dish!

As we at Let’s Dish! began the planning for the 2008 Pink Dish! Campaign, I found it hard to believe that it had already been a year since our first initiative. Then again, a year can mean so much in the fight against breast cancer - and the same is true for Pink Dish!.

If You Love a Meal… Dish More of It!

Relax-the-max on most Let’s Dish! meals
Due to popular demand (i.e., yours!) we have relaxed our limits on the maximum quantity of any individual meal you can order at a session. 
For many meals, we have set the max at 4 (or 8 splits).  A few meals have lower maximums, either because they take longer to dish […]

And now, welcome to the final frontier of session flexibility. Dish however many meals you want: 1, 3, 7, 14 or anything in between. OK, our technology is limited, so you […]
