Worth Our Weight: The Taste of Compassion
"I glance down at my GPS to make sure this is where we want to be and in doing so I almost pass my destination.

The front is clean, simple and inviting, with large colorful posters on the front window explaining the mission of W.O.W." So begins one couple's encounter with an intriguing restaurant.
