Listen, I'm not being snarky because I enjoy it, but confirmation bias is a real thing that's affecting America (the world?) and Americans' abilities to have real conversation. When someone posts "Pocahontas" or an obviously biased article/source, any real potential in that discussion is immediately destroyed because it's immediately not open-minded. I, too, am at risk for confirmation bias, but I try my absolute best to be aware of it.

That being said, the Lakes Region is struggling big time with employment--Red Hill Dari opened late with limited hours, Faro just closed, the AT&T store closed, The Bob House and Canoe almost always have tables they can't sit, etc. etc. We really need to start having serious conversations about solutions.

The discussion topic maybe one of many restaurants and service related businesses need to reassess. Does one need to open a 300 seat location? Their are many examples of local establishments in the area that seat small numbers and are very successful. The lake region population is changing and the local businesses must adapt or close

Tilton -- I always take your (inside) info as genuine & fact based.

Now spill it ….. WHO bought it and give us some of the details of what to expect ……. and most importantly - WHEN will it reopen !
I'm tired of hunting around for a new spot

Facts are nowhere near as much fun as rumors and speculation, at least until the transfer is recorded. I'm hoping for a lobster specialty venue.

TiltonBB --- SOOOO What's the story ?

It's been over a month now ……….. any update? Is it truly sold ?

Inquiring minds (and hungry stomach's) need to know the details --

Who bought it?
What style of food?
When will it re-open?

and anything else you might have uncovered
