    Walked into a popular local place last night, they had some open tables but we were told it would be at least 45 minutes because the kitchen was so backed up. They had one person running around clearing tables and seating people. This is a place with locations all over the PDX metro area and beyond.

    The service industry has done it to itself with its mandatory $20+ minimum wage and mandatory tips without breaking a sweat or moving their ass out of the slow gear. Lots of cheap restaurant equipment on the way in the next couple years.

    Most restaurant food sucks and is not worth it. Unless you are going high end or something unique that otherwise you can't get it just isn't worth it anymore
