Come watch the premiere of 24 at uWink on January 14th and 15^th from 8 p.m. – 10 p.m.!
In addition to having 24 projected bigger than life on to our walls, we will also be serving up our unique touch-screen-based 24 trivia during the commercial breaks.  Every one who plays our 24 trivia will have a chance to win various prizes - free deserts, t-shirts, etc.
As you probably know, uWink is a social restaurant… an environment created for good food, good friends, and lots of fun. Since everybody at uWink is a huge 24 fan, we wanted to do something special when 24 airs…it gives us an excuse to work and watch the show at the same time.
Also feel free to submit trivia questions for the event. Email them to Brian (at) uwink.com.  The best trivia question will get a prize.
Note - If you are available for writing lots of 24 trivia questions, uWink is willing to pay 50 cents per question.  Fun part-time job for somebody… and we will be doing other events beyond our weekly showing of 24. 

Did I mention we’ll be showing 24 weekly not just the season premiere?

Last summer I thought uWink’s TV debut would be January 2007, when reality TV show, Top Chef, airs an episode filmed at uWink.  Little did I know that we’d have CNBC, LA TV, FOX 13, AP TV, and so many others, filming uWink!

 To catch uWink’s pre-opening TV debut, tune into the BRAVO channel, Wednesday, January 10th.  Check your local schedule for show times, but in LA it is on at 10 p.m.

 Also, we’ll be watching the episode LIVE at uWink on January 10th, so if you want to come down and join in the fun, we’d love to share with you the back story!

BTW, the episode is entitled: “Unhappy Customers”.  Remember the episode was filmed at uWink over the summer, before uWink was opened, so don’t be thinkin’ that it was uWink’s customers that were unhappy! 

Bon Appetit!

We’re in the process of updating/revamping/changing/morphing/etc. uWink’s website and it’s looking great! 

We know our present website doesn’t reflect the current state of our business or our aspirations! 

So Stay Tuned! 

We look foward to showing you our new website in the New Year! 

Happy Holidays!
