[quote]appeal to women[/quote] [quote]arcade and poll table[/quote] Maybe you don’t know many single women, but this isn’t what they get dressed up for a night out to do....
[quote]Maybe I don’t get out enough[/quote] If a bar doesn’t appeal to women, they’re not going to go. If women don’t go, you’re gonna be hard pressed to find men who want to spend their Friday night with a bunch of dudes. That’s not a knock on Corporate. That’s just how it works in the BR bars. ...

[quote]Chimes would be a good idea but I'm worried we would be waiting forever to get a table. [/quote] It won't be on a wait after 9pm even if you're going the night before a home game. ...

[quote]They're nice if you remember to use it. I hardly use mine because out of sight, out of mind[/quote] Same story here. I'd like to use it, but I forget. [quote]What's the difference between an instapot and a regular slow cooker?[/quote] It has a saute feature, so you can brown the food...

I had it last week. I thought it was decent. I was starving. I think I'd like to try an open faced sandwich next time....
[quote]Maybe the service industry should stop suggesting a tip of 20% of the price of the dinner and find a more appropriate way to reward staff for a job well done. [/quote] Increase every item on the menu by 20% and pay staff 20% of their sales each shift. Then staff doesn't see a decrease in...

[quote] What seems to be hot right now are places that are like a wine bar/craft cocktails/tapas.... Bin 77, Olive or Twist and the Merchant are all killing it right now. Just an observation. [/quote] Agree. We need more trendy type spots. While cocktail/small plates is no new concept in bigger ...
I'd be disappointed if they started accepting it, but I also don't think it would make that much of a difference. As I said, they don't carry the products or selection that people on food stamps (usually people with kids) want. The only thing I could see happening is them using their food stamps to ...
[quote] not responsible enough to have their own shite together well enough to go grocery shopping[/quote] This is spot on. This is where Calandro's, Calvin's, etc. comes into play. Idiots are everywhere, but they're even worse as you go lower and lower down the chain. I cannot fathom how you leav...
There used to be a snotty old lady who worked at Calandro's that was awful and wouldn't even acknowledge me when I'd say hello/thank you, but it's not exactly any different from your typical WalMart cashier. And she is the only employee I ever had that problem with. I believe that some of these r...
I don't even see how this is racist. If anything, they are just targeting the demographic they want, which purposely excludes big families and whatnot. Small locally owned businesses have targeted certain demographics forever. EBT or not, Calandros is a small store with limited selection. They c...
[quote]Problem is, there are so many categories that it's impossible for anyone to have an educated opinion on all of them, so people vote for whatever name they've heard, or whatever place they've seen an ad for, or whatever used to be good 10 years ago, etc. [/quote] Agree. Plus, you can't exp...
[quote]Stretch your legs where? In front of you? Sure. So a flight attendant says keep this in front of you not under your seat like every flight I've ever been on has told me? I've never seen a flight attendant allow someone to keep something in front of them but hey I'm guessing you are special so...
