Political Taste Buds

For those who used to go to Lido Diner on a regular basis, before it became Woody's Diner, you know Annie and Robert Morgan, who used to run the place. You would also know their kids and their kids friends who all waited on tables there.

For being a "Corporate" diner, it had a great family feel, because of the Morgans.

During the 2006 Newport Beach City Council campaign, they catered a fund raiser at the home of Dr. Brennan Cassidy which featured Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, and had esteemed guests like Former State Senator Marian Bergeson, a couple of Councilmembers, Republican Party of OC Chairman Emeritus Tom Fuentes, Barbara Venezia, amongst many others.

The feedback from the fund raiser wasn't about how eloquent Dana was, or how nice the home is (which is very nice), or how stupid the City Council candidate was for running against a David Ellis managed guy. It was all about the food and the caterer.

Who were the Morgans.

In today's Daily Pilot is a great article about them and their restaurant named Taste Buds, as well as ink on their thriving catering business, who just did a Newport Beach Rudy Giuliani fund raiser.

I'm sure you'll be going to one of their catered events soon, especially since the election season is gearing up again.

They are great people, who run a top notch business.

Go visit their restaurant on 17th Street in Costa Mesa.

If you like the feel of the Lido Diner, you'll like their new place.
