that the food was incredibly good! 7 food courses &amp; 7 different wines $65.00</p>
<p><strong><em>January 21st</em></strong>, 7pm<br />
<strong>Date Night</strong> was a hit every time we celebrated it in 2011.<br />
<strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>February 11 &amp; 14, </em></strong>7pm, <strong>Valentines<br />
</strong>We will recreate the menu that was so successful in 2011 and as the 14 is on a Tuesday we shall celebrate<br />

in The Savage Series, and her sister, Diana Grey Rice, will offer inspirational advice from her own<br />
experience in overcoming tremendous obstacles. Of course, not all twins get along &#8230; could that be<br />
a recipe for murder?Follow the clues and help the detective solve the case while enjoying a gourmet<br />
dinner and the ambiance of The Stanford Inn. Bring your friends, after all, “Who Needs Enemies?” $50.00</p>

<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Put The Spark Back:</span></strong></p>
<p>Now and then, it’s good for the soul, the relationship and the marriage to spend some time together – just the two of you – in a romantic setting with excellent and exciting food and delicious wine.</p>
<p>The Graingers at The Stanford Inn have planned a special evening for you and your significant other, called <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">“Date Night At The Inn,”</span></strong> at a remarkably low cost of<strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"> $24 per person. Date Night is planned for two nights only: September 10 and October 8, 2011</span></strong>.</p>
<p>The Chef has created a <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">four-course menu</span></strong> that is both stimulating and delicious and includes traditionally romantic foods that will delight the palate.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Appetizers include</span></strong> a choice of scallops on half shell with mango salsa, brie and berries, roasted red pepper bisque, or potato pancakes topped with honey-smoked salmon and caviar.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Salad choices</span></strong> are Stanford house salad greens with mandarin oranges, almonds and craisins; iceburg wedge with bleu cheese and bacon crumbles; or fresh melon with basil cream sauce.</p>
<p>Whatever your mood, the two of you are going to be pleased with a <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">choice of entrees</span></strong>: prime rib with horseradish crème and aujus; Stanford stuffed chicken (spinach, onions, red pepper, garlic, pine nuts, crème and bleu cheese); or Gulf coast group (blackened, grilled or fried). Side items include baked potato (regular or sweet), fire roasted corn, yellow rice, steamed veggies or honey glazed carrots.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>For dessert</strong></span>, order two from a choice of warm caramel apple bread pudding (you HAVE to try this!), turtle cheesecake or chocolate fondue with fruit.</p>
<p>To make the evening complete, your hosts Becky and Tony Grainger will provide <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">complimentary wine</span></strong>.</p>
<p>A date night with your better half, at the only four-star restaurant in Bartow, at a low cost that will probably never be repeated, free wine – what else could you ask for? Make reservations today.</p>
<p>The Stanford Inn, Tea Room and 555 Fine Dining is located at 555 E. Stanford Street in Bartow.  For more information, call (863) 533-2393,</p>
