I think today’s diners are looking for a great value! Our local restaurant community will have to answer to these request and we will see if the are successful in implementing these specials.
I also believe that restaurants need to use the time to improve service, and improve quality in the kitchen now is not the time to make cheap changes in ingredients.

The small business sector will survive because it has always been the most resilient in the economy, benefiting from the lack of cumbersome fixed cost base that burdens large businesses and with little or no debt to service. In fact, it is widely believed that the recession will result in a larger number of business startup in the coming years as individuals stricken by the downturn resort to embarking on their postponed hidden desires to branch out on their own.
Just my two cents
