It's really heartbreaking when a homey and flat out good restaurant can't make it in these harsh economic times - and the onslaught of craptacular chains selling cheap belly ballast isn't helping. I certainly am trying my best to patronize local places - hopefully I'm making a dent.<BR/><BR/>I'm graduating into the economy in two years and am Not Happy.

Definitely would have made this place a regular rotation in my work lunch schedule had I known (even though its a good 15-20 min away).<BR/><BR/>I have the same fears of job stability as you do, my friend. Just need to ride it out and hope for the best. I seem to lean towards more comfort food these days. Excellent post as always.polarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04572566816888034888noreply@blogger.com
