With Pavilion Realty, its all about the people
BRANDON DARNELL THE NEWS MESSENGER
Gene Thorpe, left, Shari Thorpe and Glenn Vineyard give their agents much ofthe credit for receiving the award of Best Real Estate Company.
Lincoln News Messen-ger readers voted PavilionRealty as the Best Real
Estate Company.Its nice to know its a
peoples-choice award,said Gene Thorpe, man-ager/broker. Thats whatits all about the people.
Thorpe said hebelieves the key to thebusiness success is thatthe agents always followup with their clients and
treat everyone who callsas a customer regardlessof whether he or she iscalling as a customer orjust looking for advice.
For 26 years, PavilionRealty has served Lincolnand it is currently located
at 537 G. St., Suite B onBeermann Plaza.
Another aspect of thebusiness Thorpe said hashelped him serve his cus-
tomers is that PavilionRealty has not become anarm of the banks but still works with people asopposed to institutions.
For Broker Glenn Vine-
yard, receiving the awardis very satisfying.
We have never cam-paigned for it, Vineyardsaid. Were just out theredoing our jobs.

The best place to get asteak, according to read-ers of the Lincoln NewsMessenger, is AustinsSteakhouse in the Thun-der Valley Casino.
Its awesome, saidChef Lance Carlini whenhe heard the news. Itsgreat to keep contributinggreat things to the com-munity. That keeps thecustomers coming backto get that steak theylove.
The secret to the award- winning steaks, Carlinisaid, is the fact that theyare cut in-house every dayby the butcher, dry agedup to 32 days and mari-nated every day.
Another aspect thatmakes great steak,according to Vice Presi-
dent of Food and Bever-age Scott Kidd, is a mix ofmesquite charcoal andhickory wood, which cre-ates a flame-kissed steakwith a smoky flavor.
Carlinis favorite steak isthe 22-ounce, bone-in rib
eye, cooked medium rare.It has awesome mar-
bling and melts in yourmouth, Carlini said.
Carlini added thatAustins has won a num-ber of awards for itssteaks and its wine list.
Its always an honor tobe recognized by the pub-lic we serve every day,Kidd said. We have lots ofregulars, our staff is greatand the ambiance here iswonderful.

For three years in a row,Jenkins Martial Arts hasbeen voted Best Martial
Arts School by readers.What makes us differ-ent, said owner Bill Jenk-ins, is the fact that weteach martial arts first. Advancement throughthe ranks comes second.
Jenkins said that whileother martial arts schoolsfocus on advancing stu-dents to black belt in twoor three years, students athis dojo typically takeabout five years to makethe coveted rank. Andtheres a reason for that.
Our black belts areprofessional martialartists, Jenkins said. Itsets us apart from the
larger commercialschools.
Here in Lincoln since1996, Jenkins Martial Artshas brought home 25 pro-fessional karate world
championships, oftentraveling overseas to com-pete.
Its time, commitmentand dedication to thearts, Jenkins said, addingthat his school has excel-lent retention rates due toa very dedicated coregroup of martial artists.
Jenkins Martial Arts islocated at 509 G St.

Locals find breakfast at Annies Awful-ly goodThe breakfasts at Awful
Annies were once againvoted best by readers ofthe Lincoln News Mes-senger.
Its of course a big hon-or for us, said Jai Baker,co-owner of the restau-rant. The award is reallyspecial.
Baker said she believesit is because of her terrif-ic staff that diners con-tinue to come back to theestablishment.
They are so friendlyand outgoing and consci-entious, Baker said.They really care. Thefood is up to par, and if itsnot, they dont let it goout.
Baker recently added
three or four new bene-dict dishes to the winninglineup.
The potato skin bene-dict and the krunchyFrench toast are two ofthe new items.
Some current favorites,Baker said, are the breadpudding French toast andthe Bloody Marys.
