NO, in fact, I had quite a whirlwind weekend (Galatoire's for lunch on Friday, Rib Room Saturday night and back to Galatoire's on Sunday)...and every Friday in December is already booked.
I'll get rid of cable before I'll quit dining out. It's what I live for.
Roux has a $ Tree, Jeepers...
Let's follow her.....

I got to eat a filet mignon from her company today, along with what looked like 500 other people.
The best part was Roux had to help serve some of the food. She was a bean scooping fool I tell ya.

That is how I felt after the Carter administration.

I love to go out and eat, so I will make do by cutting out spending in other areas. I will just have to remember not to wear the same thing each time at my faves.

Since Ruth is dead, ain't nothing much working out too well for her anymore.
But $1 down from $18, dang. I wonder what happened? Is that drop recent, as in due to the economy?
I read an article from Gourmet yesterday, about how the Michelan 3 star restaurants are going out of style and closing. Seems the restaurant fashion over there is going towards the casual bistros. Said something like 30%(?) of all French restaurants have gone bankrupt in the last year.
What other restaurant stocks did you notice?
