14-you are always free to open any type of resturant you would like, but most people open one to make money
15-i have never heard of a pizza getting “shechted”

concerning
December 28, 2011 4:30 pm

we should not be spending so much now, there are so many needy situations. Why not structure it with healthy, attractive dishes that don’t cost so much. Lets be realistic here…..

Upscale?
December 28, 2011 4:01 pm

Although the place looks beautiful, light and bright (no more hideous dark green walls), a restaurant is not upscale if the customer needs to stand on line at the counter, serve himself, and then throw out his own leftovers. Hopefully that is not the case they are really upscale not just in price. Good luck.

location?
December 28, 2011 3:08 pm

Upscale Pizza Restaurant
December 28, 2011 1:14 pm

What this usually means is they can charge an arm and a leg for a slice of pizza which usually runs about $2.50, locally.
If they want to be around longer than their predecessors they should be competetive.

High chairs and booster seats
December 28, 2011 12:57 pm

please make sure they have high chairs and booster seats for our little kids. It makes eating out so much easier.
