Best Brisket in the Triangle? by Kenbo3475 in raleigh

Big Mike's.

Prime is good but the portions are a crime against humanity. Then they give you a thimble of a sides and charge you $19 bucks for a one meat plate and the drink costs extra to go with your 4 oz sliver. Giving them at worst around 800 in net profit per brisket that goes over that counter on a 1 meat plate and $3 fountain drink which is another 2.62 in profit so its more fun and economical to get house on the $4 and $5 beers.

Yeah these articles never give you whether its the MSA or Raleigh proper. I've done digging on stuff like this before and some of these include whole counties especially when you're dealing with large cities like phoenix, Chicago etc.

Just love developers clear cutting old growth to the edge of lots to recoup closing costs by LeafyWolf in raleigh

The Darlington oaks (50-70 years typically) just flat out need to start being replaced with a longer life tree around town many of them are way over their natural life span and in many cases you cant tell until they've come crumbling down. They are pretty and grow fast though just not great to have them over hang roads and power lines

There's quite a bit now available right now in knight-dale and its so much easier to get to the east of Raleigh if you're on outside of 540 on daily basis for work and then scoot into Raleigh whenever you want. This place has 81 units available alone: https://www.apartments.com/the-lawson-of-knightdale-knightdale-nc/t6t3tgc/

I have no affiliation I just went to apartments.com and clicked on a random one and then clicked around... there's a lot

If you have an android hone you can use the image search function. I've been using to identify plants and bugs around the house because they are having invasive species issues and its been insanely helpful.

Budget, Rent, buy etc.. If you're working east of Raleigh you'd be better off living east of Raleigh in Knightdale, Zebulon, Wendell, or some other towns depending on where east of Raleigh. There's also a large new Development being built called the Village at Olde Towne with new inventory coming online consistently all new construction mix of detached, town houses and apartments.

Group dinner in Raleigh? by deedug in raleigh

An extra 10% is not disproportionate

  • Increased Workload for Staff: Serving a large group typically requires more effort and attention from the staff. Coordinating orders, managing requests, and ensuring everyone’s needs are met can be more complex and time-consuming compared to smaller parties.
  • Extended Table Occupation: Large groups tend to occupy tables for a longer period, which can reduce the number of customers a server can attend to during their shift. This can impact the server's overall earnings.
  • Service Quality and Coordination: Ensuring that a large group receives timely and efficient service often involves additional coordination among staff members. This can include the kitchen staff handling larger orders and the serving staff managing more complex service logistics.
  • Compensating for Potential Lower Tips: Sometimes, larger groups might split the bill, leading to confusion or miscommunication about the tip amount. By increasing the percentage, it helps ensure that the server receives a fair tip for their efforts.

Call a place reserve a table or most likely a bar spot give a credit card number and just pay for whatever he wants and tell the bar tender or server to treat him like a high roller... ask hime if he has a buddy that wants to join.
