Belated Birthday Lunch - Wednesday 6/25/2008
Yes, it was six months and 9 days late, but I've never been one to look a gift horse in the mouth. Our boss took us to lunch to celebrate the birthdays of Gifted, Weens and me.
We decided to try out this newish place, The Granville, in Burbank that Gifted had been to a few times. Really good food, especially the herbed sweet potato fries.
Their "quick service" plan for lunches doesn't work very well for large groups like ours (9 people.) In a place like this, which isn't inexpensive for lunch, you expect table service. We had to stand in line at the cash register and place our orders, take a number to a table, and then have it delivered without much finesse or accuracy.
I can't imagine it saves them enough in server wages as it costs them in customer satisfaction.
I'd go back in a smaller group, or for happy hour--which is how Gifted had been there before.
I had yummy pepita-encrusted trout.
