Any plans for Cinco De Mayo Sunday?

I'm making barbeque ribs, homemade potato salad, corn on the cob. I make my own barbeque sauce and folks tell me I should open my own restaurant it's (supposedly) that good!馃槣

I hate when people recognize something you do well and say you should open up a restaurant selling these - I mean who would do that ? I helped a friend install an electric stove and connected 3 wires for him - and he said you should do this for a living ....what ? who the hell would want to install stoves for a living. This way the prison system is not overburdened and can make room for more.

@MarmeeMarch I certainly won't argue that one, having already done one restaurant it can be rewarding yes, but also a living hell. Folks can be at their very worst when eating out, not to mention food overall tends to be low profit the secret is in location and volume.

@Grateful4you not worth it - there are some people that will raise hell and try to scam a free meal or something free or discounted - no way Jose

@MarmeeMarch Been there done that. I actually had a customer ask me if my tuna was dolphin free? I said of course, but then she wanted to go into my kitchen and see for herself. Of course, I was livid but restrained myself and simple told her, you're welcome to check my kitchen but first show me your dept. of health food handlers card....she abruptly turned and stomped out....LMAO!

@Grateful4you Tell her - there is no Dolphin in this tuna - you are eating a tuna fish that has been killed just for you - and each time you eat tuna you are supporting the killing of tuna fish you murderer.

Who cares if you say that - she aint coming back. And that is exactly why I cant own or work in food services.

@MarmeeMarch The one good thing is that I had some wonderful and loyal customers, and my store was really nice. I also offered some very unique and different items not available anywhere else. I had to learn the hard way though, overall, it just isn't worth the hardship.
