After Christmas in the City last week, my family and a group of friends, with 5 small children, wanted to go our for a bite to eat. Our usual place of choice is a local restaurant chain. When we arrived, we were told it would be at least one hour. I then suggested we go to Pauly's, where we often order take out. We had a large party of 10, were seated right away, and had GREAT service. The locals in a group, including myself, all went to high school with Pauly, so a few of us knew the owner and were greeted with a warm handshake. We had excellent servers, the atmosphere was fun, food was great, and all had a good time. To top it all of, we were treated with complementary fried dough after the meal! In this case, staying local was a GREAT move. The other two families we were with had never been to Pauly's and they too enjoyed the experience. Try Pauly's for a great sit down meal!
On a related note, I would also like to recognize Millenium Computers. The other day, I had to have a key replaced on my laptop, brought it in and expected to leave it and pay for the reapir. Instead, it was fixed on the spot and while I offered pay, nothing was taken. This another store we try to patronize as well.
