Hello Ramily –

We have a multitude of happenings at the Ram right now that I want to touch on.  Our new lunch menu is out and after a few days, the top three sellers thus far are the Ram Turkey Club, All American Burger with Cheese, and our Beer Battered Fish Sandwich.  Many thanks to all who had a hand in developing these tasty lunch options.  As our new lunch menu hits the tables, we wrapped another successful BURGERAMA LTO.  The top-selling burgers and their restaurant of inspiration were:

1. Some Like It Hot Burger (Medford)
2. Nashville Honey-Hot Chicken Sandwich (Wilsonville)
3. Chicken Fried Steak Burger (Megan Miller Home Office)
4. Tickle Me Pink Salmon Sandwich (Boise)

 The great Ram Pizza rollout continues.  We expect another batch of ovens to arrive towards the end of this month (yes deliveries have been pinched by supply chain opportunities) and will update all regarding installation dates as soon as we know. 

On the beer front, we have a number of frosty, satisfying seasonal drafts on tap which compliment a beautiful canning run of Big Dread and Cinqopatas.  Congratulations to our top Clearwater Kolsch and Udder Chaos salespeople: 

1. Jacob Trujillo – Issaquah is the grand champion with 210 cans (8.75 cases) sold – $100 
2. Lindsey Liles – Puyallup with 173 cans (7.2 cases) sold – $50 
3. Jessica Snow – Issaquah with 160 (6.6 cases) sold – $50 
4. Alexis Overly – Lakewood with 154 (6.4 cases) sold – $50 

Game On!  Dave Leonard is drafting a new sales contest for Big Dread and Cinqo – details from Dave coming soon. 

 Additional beverage news – we are adding our El Jimador Margarita to Happy Hour for $6.00.  Top Box will be taking over as our house wine.  This product won our blind taste test and its freshness is preserved in the unique packaging.
