UCP Fundraiser At Firebirds

Firebirds Rocky Mountain Grill's new Collierville location held is pre-grand opening party Thursday night. Admission was $25 with all proceeds going UCP of the Mid-South. The sold out event included a generous sampling of Firebirds menu items, wine, beer and a silent auction.

Overall the heavy hor's doerves were pleasing. My favorites were the kobe beef spears and the creme broulee cheesecake. Other items included crab cakes, sliced beef, pork and several other items.

At the end of the night, UCP was able to reel in over $10,000.

After Firebirds, we made our way closer to home base and had a couple of cocktails and Grisanti's on Poplar. Thursday nights have been to know to be crowded at the bar, but not on this Thursday. After a couple of drinks, we headed over the Blue Monkey. The crowd was better than Grisanti's and the band was pretty good. There even was a "swingers" siting.
