91734217 3159929127353569 2259322998660005888 n

Dear friends, family and valued customers,

As many of you know this is the third week we have been adamantly providing meals for our health care workers through our own volition.

However It is time for me to listen to my own kids and follow their advice on staying home. When they told me “we only have one parent, you “is when the severity of the situation hit . They gave me no choice.
Now is not the time to risk anything for the sake of my kids.
We decided to shut Lisa’s Mediterranean cuisine for a week.
Thank you all for your continued support during these tough times.
Please take good care of yourself and others in the midst of this unease
With Love always Lisa’s Mediterranean cuisine
