That was the Whiskey something or other.
The reasons they could not make it was the food was terrible and the service was worse....the kiss of death on any food establishment.

I disagree with your opinion of a high(er) price establishment not being able to make it. There are many, many of us here in TV who pay that and more for a truly, upscale eatery with an upscale menu and a renowned chef, with fall all over the customer service.......AND...... we have to drive an hour ++ to get it.

I have said it before....while there are decent places to eat in and around TV there simply is not any fine dining here.

If one does ever open and they mind their ABC's of success (the good ones always do) there will be no problem of survival.
