Business Cycle

[carlylecat]

Stopped in a "top fifty" NJ restaurant last night and had a drink with owner and manager, both said business is way down the last two weeks at both their restaurants after having a great September/October. They had a bunch of tables open at 8 pm which is unusual for them even on a Wed night

Any thoughts on why this may be?

Nothing seemed to change at either location, maybe an early pre-Thanksgiving pause.

Anyone else notice this?

I will attest to that. First, we got slammed in the storm, lost all our food, two catering jobs in house, closed for Saturday - Wednesday. I had openings Tuesday and tonight, which is rare...
