Oh wow. That is strange.
Storm must have gotten the manager on duty.

No. I guess they were closing at 9. There were still plenty of people there, and he wasn't even willing to let us get a quick drink at the bar. But it was, what it was, and I'm sure he had some reason - I was just surprised at how he went about it. He wasn't professional whatsoever, it was kind of just the **** you approach.caryking said:Storm must have gotten the manager on duty.

Maybe they always close at 9. Just seemed early for a food and drink establishment to be closing in the middle of a college commercial district.

Disappointing, I'm sure…
It's not strange at all. Walking into a restaurant when they're closing in 10 minutes is completely obnoxious.

Do not like that 42nd street is closing. My roommate and I
Would go every Sunday after nfl games to get a peck of oysters. He eventually became a server there.
Best story is that it was a stop on my bachelor party. Not the first and I ended up in the bathroom sick. My buddies were in there with me and the female server continued to serve them in the bathroom. Talked about every time 42nd street comes up

**** you dude. You are an idiot.
Lol, I'm not the oblivious asshat who's probably gotten his food spit in 1000 times.TheStorm said:
**** you dude. You are an idiot.
So when you walk into any restaurant when they're about to close, do you imagine all of the 20-somethings who work there who are desperate to get done and go out drinking for the night say "Oh, wow! We just got the kitchen 80% cleaned up, and now we get to mess it back up to cook for this guy! Sure, we'll be stuck here for another hour now, but our owner will be so happy!"
I'll accept being called an asshat for pulling into an iconic college restaurant in one of the main university commercial districts at 8:50PM in mid-August while it's still light out even with 15 cars in the parking lot, 20 people eating and drinking on the outside fenced-in / gated patio, other people still inside and not realizing that they close at 9. You got me Smarpty. I'm guilty.
The fenced-in / gated patio is directly to the left of the front door, and there was a female service person that was apparently working that area that greeted us in a very normal fashion just as anyone would have normally expected. We told her how many, and she says "let me check", opens and sticks her head inside the front door and starts talking to somebody, the manager comes to the door leans halfway out looks at us up and down (like I said, we just came from the scrimmage - left just before the special teams at the end started - so we're dressed in State gear) and just dickishly says "we're closed" and fades right back inside. We never even got inside the front door, and there was absolutely no more to the conversation after that.
I guess maybe I just think a supposed adult managing a business would say something more to the tune of "I'm sorry, we close at 9 and we're not taking any additional customers tonight". Not every State grad lives in Raleigh and has Amedeo's hours memorized.
The server just awkwardly smiles and says "I'm really sorry about that". She was nice and nothing in her short interaction with us would have given us the impression that us showing up there thinking that they were open to eat was untoward or anything else negative in any way shape or form. She didn't owe us any apology. She knew he acted like a dick..
We went to the sit down sushi restaurant just down and across the street, got a table and ate with no issues whatsoever.
Yes Smarpty, you got me.

Why even bother responding to that *******. Hell, he was probably the snotty, low level manager who treated you that way.TheStorm said:

It's pretty clear you've never worked in a restaurant, and like most conservatives are empathy-challenged.TheStorm said:

So now you know... when you walk up to any restaurant close to 9pm you're first question should be "Hey, what time do you close?" And if the answer is 9pm, the next thing out of your mouth should be "Oh, ok, we'll come back next time. Thanks!" And that's it! Doesn't matter if there are currently 20 other people at tables camping out. Trust me, everyone working at the restaurant wants them to finish up asap.
The stressed out and annoyed manager (because his restaurant was packed at closing time) did you a favor. I guarantee if he had smiled and sat you someone back in the kitchen would have done something unpleasant to your food.
Another spot that I miss when in Raleigh.
Neptune's Galley had the best hushpuppies ever in my opinion. Seafood was good too, but I would load up on the hushpuppies before the meal ever got there.ncsupack1 said:

I want to say in the mid 90's, but that is just a guess. It's been Pam's Farmhouse Restaurant for a while, and the other half of the building is a bar called The Goat. Pam's is a good place to eat for breakfast.
Being an N. C. State fan builds great character!
Got ya, thanks. I have yet to eat at Pam's. I do think the GOAT is either closed or about to be.
Yes, The Goat closed last Fall.ncsupack1 said:

Like a lot of other "renaissance" people, I worked at multiple restaurants while I was in high school and college. Which I guess is where I learned the basic level of human empathy that seems like a foreign language to you idiots.
Bear Stearns? Ouch, that's a low blow. You know I was at Lehman Brothers... you've blathered about it at least 100 times. And most recently was the CTO thing.
We all can't be the king of Cary, though.
Bear Stearns, Leyman Brothers, whatever... That's why I said (I think) as I couldn't remember. Human empathy, huh?

Worked there for a couple years in college and I loved it dearly. Some of the very first barstool posts were made from the employee break room. Gonna miss this place. There really isn't anything like it.
It's a damn shame because what I always used to say to people is I loved Raleigh because it was a capital city that still felt like a small town. I know I'm speaking to the choir as a younger person here, but it is still sad.

I've been saying it with regret for years..Raleigh is the next Atlanta
Like I know housing is a necessity and more of it will help bring rents down eventually, but if all there is left are offices and apartments, where the hell are these people supposed to go other than work or home?

Brothers Pizza
Nelson's/Fosters
Daryl's used to have what they called the Barrel of Fun, which was a neat little barrel looking cardboard menu that had every drink that they made listed on it. My buddies and I would start at letter "A" as they were in alphabetical order, order drinks around, and work our way down the list. It took many trips to drink them all, but when we did, we just started over and drank them all again.Glasswolf said:Darryl's was my spot.

And the nights we spent in the Circus Room. Then would slide down to Ed's Grocery and act like we knew how to dance.
Edwards Grocery was a unique (LOL) place. We had a lot of good times there, Barry's and my spot was the old Silver Bullet Saloon (Goodnights). We loved the live music spots especially the Cameron Village Subway. Those places are truly missed. Speaking of working down a drink list. We were trying to work our way down the imported beer cooler at Mr. Dunderbak's at Crabtree. It started when they were outside the food court. Place couldn't have been 50 ft. wide with the bar all the way in the back. Another great place gone but not forgotten. Decent food also.Tootie4Pack said:Daryl's used to have what they called the Barrel of Fun, which was a neat little barrel looking cardboard menu that had every drink that they made listed on it.

My buddies and I would start at letter "A" as they were in alphabetical order, order drinks around, and work our way down the list. It took many trips to drink them all, but when we did, we just started over and drank them all again.Glasswolf said:Darryl's was my spot. Then once I came back off the road and moved off of Wake Forest Rd it was the location there. Drank a lot of draft and then Long Island Ice Tea's. Two Guys, Brothers, The Rathskellar, Big Bad Wolf (and the Keg), The Cantina for a basket of nacho's and a bucket of Rolling Rock.DrummerboyWolf said:
Darryls which was down near the Bell Tower like Sadlacks
And ate those great Daryl's crackers, which was thin pizza crust baked up just right and great with cold beer.
And the nights we spent in the Circus Room. Then would slide down to Ed's Grocery and act like we knew how to dance.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

I'm traveling out west with my grandson for his spring break from middle school. Will be back over the weekend.
Who won the race yesterday? Found it in the hotel room on tv, was watching it, went to a commercial and when it came back on it was Indy cars instead.
Glad to see everything is going good. The 5 won, also have fun with your grandson, good times.TheStorm said:ncsupack1 said:
