It appears that a struggling chain may have recieved a desperately needed lifeline. The restaurant industry has been in a tailspin since covid, especially in the casual dining and bars segment. Many major chains have been heavily discounting food and drink in order to bring people in. Recently TGI Fridays has $5 Happy Hours and appears to be doubling down on the bar scene again. Some of the chains also have gone above and beyond lowering margins and in some cases quality to keep the lights on. With this latest move, it seems that the single bar scene may have new life, we learned one of the world’s largest casual dining companies that proudly serves guests with over 850 restaurants in more than 55 countries was about to be taken over.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

Grabbing a donut, muffin, bagel, or coffee on your way to or from work can be a nice way to give yourself a sweet treat or pick me up without spending much money. Unfortunately, a Florida restaurant in this genre was recently closed down. I frequently write about restaurant closures, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a violation like the one that caused the closure.

Clearwater, Florida: Although many people know Kirstie Alley from her time on the wildly popular sitcom Cheers, there was much more to her than that. Alley was also a mother, and, at least part-time, she was a Floridian living in a home in Clearwater, Florida, that she purchased from Lisa Marie Presley.
