Oh sure drag me out of the lurking bushes, Yes, I too have worked in the restaurant /food business. My time was the 11 to 7 shift - dead man's shift for more reasons then not. Time era - circa 1960-70's dinner to breakfast, 7 days a week, fair was good ol' greasy spoon country style food. But, I would like to do it again, more like a B&B on some Caribbean Island or such... maybe like 10 rooms or so. Fair - whatever the island had generally growing, but with hot peppers of course.
