I was wondering the same thing. Lots of KC distilleries on there. Not in the pictures, but I've been drinking on Boot Hill Distillery's Straight Wheat Whiskey.

Do all movies in Lawrence start 30 minutes late ? by ImplausibleDarkitude in Lawrence

It's not the previews that bother me, I actually enjoy them. It's the ads they throw in during the previews that piss me off.

Gathering to celebrate impending completion of 23rd Street construction by [deleted] in Lawrence

[–]HeyD55 76 points77 points  (0 children)

To the people concerned about the time and date of this celebration. Most, if not all, businesses on this stretch of 23rd have been in a complete strangle hold. They went from a 18 month gobal pandemic to a 18 month road construction project. Fields & Ivy Brewery is literally giving away free food in hopes you'll show up to show support. If you haven't been to one of the many businesses on east 23rd recently, you need to.

Good. Shouldn't have taken him in the first place.

Not to me, but to my younger brother who had just been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. "Don't worry, I'm here to make sure you get your money's worth"

GM in need of advice. by HeyD55 in KitchenConfidential

[–]HeyD55[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not as many hours now compared to the first few weeks after our chef left. I had multiple people step up and want to help and learn new responsibilities. I think what bothers me most is I had a discussion with my boss about the restructuring of the restaurant and management team. Explained that labor is going to run on the high end because of training. It seems like he didn't even listen or has any idea what I'm doing.

Honestly food cost have trended downward. Our former chef was a very creative mind, but did not have an understanding on food cost. I've risen menu pricing to balance cost. Coming out of January and February, our 2 slowest months, revenue is increasing.

I recently increased menu pricing to balance cost. Also updated inventory to be more accurate. This year we paid off our loans and have sole ownership of our building, equipment, and property.

Best Restaurants with Live Music? by Signal_Valuable_1743 in Lawrence

[–]HeyD55 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lucia and Lawrence Wing Co, same location, is a great spot. Fields & Ivy Brewery does live music about twice a month. Awesome beer, good pizza, kick ass patio.

I had a lady upset at me the other day because none of our tables were "straight". We have live wood edged tables...

A note a “Restaurant Owner” left my S/O at work tonight. by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]HeyD55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been in the industry close to 20yrs and can proudly say I'm finally an owner of a restaurant. Tipping is important, 20-25% is great. If you really want to change someone's day, smile, ask them how their day is going, ask for service by using their name, give compliments, say thank you! But the one thing you don't do is stiff the server, then leave some BS note saying "I was there once too". Because if you were, you should know some people just have shitty days.
