We have experienced tremendous growth in the restaurant and want to thank all of you who have gotten us where we are now.  Thanks for all of your positive (and let's be honest, some times not-so-positive) feedback.  We couldn't continue to improve without the feedback, so keep it up!  We want to know what you think.

We have finalized our plans for Valentine's Day.  We have decided not only to offer our current menu, but we will also create a special "Companion" menu for the evening.  It will feature several different appetizers, salads, and entrées not currently offered on our menu.  Be sure to make reservations, because it will be an extremely busy night and we want to make sure your special evening is perfect!  Also, we will be offering a few special wines for the occasion. 

Speaking of wines, we are pleased to announce our newest wine list is now available online.  We wanted to give you a preview of all of the new wines we will be offering starting in February.  Although there is no official offering date as of this writing, rest assured we will be running this new wine menu no later than Valentine's Day.

We appreciate your patronage and look forward to serving you soon!

1.  We are officially carrying desserts from Sweet Maria's located here in Wilson.  Baked fresh daily, Sweet Maria's carries a number of worldly desserts, which fits the menu and vision of Fifty Fifty perfectly.  Please check the food menu to read the descriptions of these exciting new additions to our menu.

2.  Tuesday's "Jazz Night" is suspended until April.  Two of the guys in the band migrate to the beach for the Winter.  Fear not, we will be resuming this program again in April.

3.  The new wine list is almost finished.  We will be adding a number of varieties on some standards, such as Cabernet Savignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Pinot Grigio.  Also, new to this list, will be Sparkling wines, as well as a "Reserve" list.  The Reserve list will carry bottles priced in the $50 to $100 plus price range.  Also, we will be carrying even more options by the glass.  This will be the largest wine list release to date!

4.  J. Powell recently underwent throat surgery to remove scar tissue around his vocal folds.  He will be  unable to speak until Valentine's Day.  If you need to speak to a manager during the day, please call 252.293.0123 and ask for Christina.  Christina, Josh, or Adam will be more than able to assist you with anything you may need during normal business hours.

Thanks for your support and we look forward to spending more time with you all in 2008!

We will be closed December 24, 25, & 26, as well as New Year's Eve and Day.  We have some exciting things to look for in the early part of 2008:

1.  We are the exclusive provider of gourmet desserts made fresh daily by Sweet Maria's here in Wilson.  Currently, we are featuring their famous Chocolate Mousse Cake & Estrela do Mar.

2.  Our special Valentine's Day dinner, with a special menu for the evening, as well as romantic live music, and decorations.  Be sure to call for reservations!

3.  Also in February, we will release a new wine menu, with even more selections.

4.  New dinner menu, capturing all of the excitement and ingredients the Spring and Summer have to offer.

Joe will be arriving around 7:00 pm. Please call ahead and reserve a table for dinner. Tasting and pricing sheets will be available as well. This will be a very informal meeting. Joe is in town promoting the grand opening of the Carolina Cheese Company and decided to stop by and have dinner and sample us on some of his wines. Needless to say, the staff and myself are very excited to have Joe eat dinner with us!
