Restaurant Roundup: Free bundtlets, soup campaign, grape-pickers needed
Aug. 25, 2022
Help Nothing Bundt Cakes celebrate its 25th birthday Sept. 1 with free cake. The first 250 guests will get a confetti bundtlet. No purchase is necessary. Founded in Las Vegas in 1997, Nothing Bundt Cakes started as a small baking business out of the home kitchens of co-founders Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz. They eventually started opening bakeries and have franchised their concept. Now, there are almost 450 locations, including the Sioux Falls franchise on the east side of the Western Mall. It opens at 9 a.m. that day.
Fat Kid Filly’s is helping feed guests at the Bishop Dudley Hospitality House with its “Soup for the American Soul” campaign.
