wouldn’t be possible without the readers who took the time to let us know what they think. Here we present a trio of voters we singled out for a $100 thank-you. At left, top is Diana Emler, who said she was so surprised at winning that she didn’t know how she’d spend her loot, although we expect she’ll fi gure something out. In the center is Denise Bellante, who plans to give 10 percent of her check to her church and spend the rest on her grandkids. At bottom is Kathy Gallegos, who isn’t sure what she’ll do with her cash, but who fi gures a little mad money is always a good thing. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Restaurant for SeniorsFIRST – Antioch Joes3100 Contra Loma Blvd., 777-1237Here’s an Italian restaurant that caters to seniors and has thrived in this dining niche.

HONOR – Humphreys on the Delta1 Marina Place, 778-5800Another place to get a marvelous salad. What could better than a colorful, nutritious and tasty salad at Humphreys?

SalsaFIRST – Celia’s Mexican Restaurant

523 W. 10th St., 754-1355Nothing’s more Mexican than salsa – with chips, as a side or smothering a serving of enchiladas. Celia’s salsa achieves the perfect balance of spice and texture. It’s sensational. Our readers are adamant about that and we wouldn’t argue the point for one minute.

SteakFIRST – Schooner’s Grill & Brewery4250 Lone Tree Way, 776-1800Look who showed up fi rst in the Steak category. Are you surprised? We aren’t, not when you consider all the other Best of Antioch awards this restaurant has garnered. Steaks are a specialty with Schooner’s.
