"After 35 years in Mission Beach, I learned Coaster Saloon was purchased by David Cohn of Cohn Restaurant Group last summer and given a top-to-top design refresh; the eatery also brought in new executive chef Tim Eylens, whose experience with Texas-style barbecue has transformed the menu. To celebrate its milestone anniversary and National Barbecue Month, they will give away 100 free plates of barbecue starting at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, May 8, with sampler platters that include baby back ribs, pulled pork, and brisket served with mac and cheese, baked beans, pickles, and bread." - Candice Woo
