In lieu of the tragedy of the Cane Garden employees, they are closed this weekend. It is too bad it had to happen to anyone, let alone the young kids that worked there. This post was made at the beginning of the week, and was, in fact, more a criticism of the lady that was managing the restaurant at that time. These guys had no decision making in the running off of customers nor the changes in the menu. My sympathies to the families and friends of the deceased.

Are you accusing Redwitch of lying? What makes you think that she is?

Redwitch shoots from the hip. She doesn't BS and what she says can be taken to the bank. A very trustworthy and honest (maybe too honest) person. I believe Redwitch and of the manager telling her to eat faster. No reason for Redwitch to make up this tale.

I totally agree with you, Tom.

I just don't understand paulandjean's post...and I don't understand the second post either.

paulandjean....I am sorry if I am misunderstanding your post.

If you are saying it in jest, sometimes it helps if you put a or a following your statements.

Have a great Sunday!

No truer words were ever spoken. Redwitch says it like it is.

I never want her mad at me.

I respect her honesty and her intelligence.

Sometimes if you go to a posters profile you can get an idea of what they like to post. There are some people who post things to get fights started. Of course, I'm not saying who, that would be rude. But some people like to post outrageous posts.

I said half of the stuff on here I do not beleive, Maybe its her half or maybe its not.I cannot beleive they would say hurry up and eat. I would not send for the manager. Think thats a mistake. I would think if it happened to me,I think the manager would be coming to me to talk.Order another cup of coffee and take your time.Just because you question someone,you are not calling them a liar. Lighten up.

It must be difficult for restaurant managers when there are people waiting for tables and guests linger. Last night we waited over an hour at Havana while people just sat and talked long after they had paid. I think there was a bigger crowd because Cane Garden was closed but I would think that the people who lingered had to be aware of the huge crowds waiting for tables.

I understand your frustration for waiting for a table.

In Europe, a table is yours until you leave and it's considered rude to bring a check to a table until it's asked for. While I agree that I hate to wait for a table, but I for one think we need to be able to enjoy our friends, conversations, eat slower and enjoy life. I hate going out to eat and before the meal is completed someone is bringing me a check. I also want to linger over coffee and dessert or and after dinner drink and enjoy the evening. That's what "dining" is supposed to be about.

I lived in a city that you couldn't make a reservation at a restaurant and sometimes had to wait a few hours to be seated. You got to know people at the bar and they serve appraisers while you wait. It was the evening!!!!! No one cared! Make it fun and people will come back!

Yes "Village Girl',there are people on this site that like to start trouble, as you can see to the responders on my coments. Some people always think they are right.
