numerous takeout joints nearby work either never came back or have shuttered since the pandemic b/c the office occupancy rates just aren't there - hollywood big shot May 28, 11:01 11

- we rarely eat out anymore cause 1) too fucking expensive and 2) we can cook it better ourselves - Beaker 🍺 May 28, 11:14 4
  - Yeah, I eat in a restaurant much less than I used to. i just made a reservation for Thursday to have dinner with a friend & there was a $50 -- (edited) - Andie May 28, 11:43 3
    - We have that for a few of the high end places here. One event makes you pre-pay in full in advance (it's got a tasting menu). -- nm - MDH May 28, 11:53
    - some of that is to limit scalpers from booking tables and selling them... yeah that's a thing now -- nm - zeitgeist May 28, 11:49
    - Wow, I've never heard of that -- nm - Pippy Blue Sky May 28, 11:49
- Yeah, that's almost entirely what it is (I think). People who WFH just tend to eat at home. -- nm - pmb May 28, 11:08
- It's a big problem for us as well. Without the office workers going to lunch a lot of places didn't survive and more are barely - Krusty May 28, 11:04
