[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not a fed worker, so I’m not directly feeling affected but I’ve noticed it at my local restaurant (non chain restaurant) that they are struggling because people are eating out less and they are now wondering how much longer they can stay open. [/quote] Not a fed but I'm always amazed whenever my family goes out to eat that restaurants are so packed and so pricy. We maybe go out to eat 4x per year so for us it's a rare treat but it seems many people do it all the time. Sounds like some much needed belt-tightening is happening. [/quote] I think it's smaller local eateries that are hurting while larger popular restaurants are doing quite well. And some days are busier than others. Steak houses and Tysons parking lots look full. We went to pick up from the bakery next to Patsy's on a regular weekday evening and were shocked how busy the restaurant was, we could barely find parking. [/quote]
