Hastings Steakhouse, 312 W. Oklahoma Ave, Guthrie, OK
Shalom. Hastings Steakhouse greets you with a blessing that may sound unusual to the American ear. The Hebrew definition of Shalom is completeness, wholeness, health, peace, welfare, safety, soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, harmony, and the absence of agitation or discord. We would like to further bless you by inviting your organization, volunteers, and others in the community to dine with us while raising money for you.

Prior to opening the Hastings Steakhouse, Stephanie Hastings felt God was asking her to “feed my sheep.” Although Hastings Steakhouse does offer delicious and wholesome food including freshly milled whole wheat breads, the Scott & Stephanie Hastings along with their children feel their mission is much more than physical nourishment. Hastings Steakhouse wants to feed God’s sheep spiritually as well.

Granny Had One, 113 W. Harrison, Guthrie, OK
Scott and Stephanie Hastings, owners of Hastings Steakhouse located at 312 W. Oklahoma, and Ben and April Coffin, owners of BeSpoke Catering, recently purchased Granny Had One in downtown Guthrie. For several weeks Granny’s has been closed while some renovations and remodeling is taking place. Don’t worry, the charm and the murals will still be there. There will be new food, new folks, new hours, but the same loving Granny.

The grand re-opening for Granny Had One is tentatively scheduled for the end of March. The newly “lifted” Granny will have room for Special Events, offer on location catering, and will be open to the public six days a week (Mon – Sat) for lunch and dinner. After removing the old buffet area, Granny’s famous homemade rolls and pies will find a new and expanded home in an open baking bar. The new menu will offer family dining and country cooking.

God’s Food Bank Honored at Local Charity Night on Thursday, February 19

Guthrie, OK – February 16, 2009 Oklahoma is the fifth hungriest state in the nation, and with increasing economic distress, our local food banks and pantries are seeing an increase in people asking for assistance. On February 19, at Hastings Steakhouse, you can learn more about a local organization helping others in Logan County.

God’s Food Bank is a non-denominational grass roots organization that feeds needy families in Logan County, with the goal of touching people’s hearts, fighting hunger and giving hope. God’s Food Bank was started 11 years ago and today serves more than 400 families in Logan County. They provide numerous children needed food in the Food 4 Kids backpack program. Food 4 Kids is a school-based emergency assistance program that provides weekly backpacks full of food to children at risk of going to bed hungry each night. Though God’s Food Bank is funded in part by United Way, FEMA, and the Regional Food Bank, they rely heavily on private donors and local fundraisers.

In a recent survey, Feeding America found that more than 80 percent of its food banks reported they could not meet the increased demand without trimming operations or reducing the amount of food they provide. Government programs and corporate aid will not be enough to feed hungry Americans. It’s going to take individuals getting involved with time, food and money, and the good news is that this Thursday there is a fun and easy way that you can get involved.

The couple has recently moved into the new, high rent, six-story walk-up apartment complete with a botched paint job, a snow-leaking skylight, a bedroom too small for their double bed and an outlandish gourmet who lives in a loft on the roof.
