APPLE VALLEY REVIEW
APPLE VALLEY • After 11 years of catering such events as USC football games and the taping of the TV show “Monster Garage,” Todd Eves (pictured) has opened his own restaurant in Apple Valley, Out of This World BBQ and Saloon.
“It’s a lot of hours, but it’s a passion,” Eves said. “And it’s doesn’t even feel like work, it’s more like an adventure.”
Everything on the menu is his recipe.
After hauling his cooking gear all over Southern California, Eves finds working at the restaurant a lot easier.
