One thing I'm sure you'll like is the new way the food will be presented on the plate. Instead of being scattered and messy, it will be more compact and neatly organized in a pile. This has been done by other up-scale restaurants and has been proven to work well. Don't doubt me!

It was said they will have fresh ingredients: More traffic means a faster turnover of ingredients, so of course everything will be fresh.

The plates will be round instead of rectangular, just like I remember when I first visited Red Lobster many years ago. I have good memories of that day and I'm getting all warm and fuzzy just thinking about it.

So be sure to go to see for yourself and you be the judge. The fish may be farm-raised: that means you'll be supporting farmers, not to mention the restaurant staff and local business.

What do you think? Do you like the new positive VPL?
Neither funny nor useful--don't go there if you don't like the place. I am not a patron because I have never thought that it was a good restaurant nor a good value. No need to publically wish failure. Our capitalistic system weeds out those who do not provide value for the buck.
