“Ms. Joyce” Celebrates 30 Years at La Provence

For generations of diners drawn to La Provence in Lacombe, Louisiana,
Joyce Bates has been welcoming guests to the restaurant with a smile, a
poem, and a cocktail since 1979.

In celebration of her 30 years of service, chef John Besh and his team
invite friends and family as our guest to toast Ms. Joyce at the
farm-to-table restaurant in Lacombe, Louisiana on Sunday, August 9, 2009
from 3pm-5pm.

Ms. Joyce will mark the celebration by reading one of her signature poems,
a new one entitled, “Thanks for the Memories: Guests Who Became
Friends.” Come tell a few of your own stories, and share a laugh or a happy tear
with Joyce Bates over cocktails and passed hors d’oeuvres at La Provence: 985-626-7662.
