As a small neighborhood establishment, it is hard to find answers that are about me. Each time I read RR, I find that much of it is about subjects that effect me, the small guy. I am impressed that somehow we seem to be on the same level, and have the same concerns.

Al Schwartz, Bistro al Vino

Just want to thank you for an excellent publication. I send it to everyone I know in the business. I will soon be a restaurant owner and I can't tell you how invaluable your newsletter has been. Keep up the good work.
