artsnob Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Is it going to be a smoke house for selling and smoking cigars, or eating smoked meat, or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always go in, check out the menu right there, and if there's nothing that appeals to you, you leave. Not a big problem! Life is too short to not have adventure!

ComputerGuy Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 And of course that's what this board is for: so nobody ever has to actually do anything physical beyond typing a question. Now, as far as checking out restaurants, I don't include myself in that group; rather, I think of that as a special set of guineau pigs that do the testing for me. That's different than being lazy: that's just good economics. Then I will get up off my couch and proclaim "their opinion has no taste, and I will judge for myself", and go anyway.

Mainecoons Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Supposed to open this weekend. Hopefully not the all too common rocky start. We'll let this one mellow a bit and see what the folks here think about it. We use CG's approach. We don't eat out often enough that we want to ruin our night out by patronizing places that significant numbers here are not impressed with. There are several reviewers in particular here whose tastes seem to closely mirror our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
