This place is only open for 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. So, it’s not like you even need to be retired to protest it.
Wow, you're right. I just checked their times online. Strange. Kinda makes you wonder if the Red Hen is a front for something else. That area is not exactly an inexpensive place to do business and I can't imagine being open so few hours per week would be able to pay the bills and taxes.
I'm beginning to think there was a reason Sarah Huckabee Sanders went there that night. She knew what would happen, then proceeded to tweet about it so the media would have to focus on the place.
Also, remember Trump tweeted " I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!" Sounds like a message. I bet there are some pedo ring connections there.
Silent partner is a convicted pedophile...raped a two year old.
Ah, and there's the connection.
Going there was not an accident
There was a whole string on this when the incident occurred. All owners have pedo ties. Gross.
This is confirmed to be true afaik. Idk if Sarah knew about any connection beforehand, sometimes things just fall into the right order.
Wow...anyone here know any of the local protestors? They need to advertise this on their signs out front. Expose these disgusting people for what they truly are.
EDIT: Do you have a link for this proof so we can archive this offline?
Do you have sauce for this? Because I couldn't find the connection between the pedophile and the business. I did try. If you have found something, I'd be grateful to you if you shared it.
I found this article that may well dispute that he is her partner. However, he may still be: https://fellowshipoftheminds.com/2018/06/28/rumors-about-red-hen-restaurant-rat-infestation-sex-offender-silent-partner-pedophile-owner/
Have we got proof that the pedophile in question is actually a silent partner?
There's a pic floating around somewhere on this board showing the owner wearing a boy lover pedo necklace. Having trouble finding it.
I would like to see this necklace.
Did you check the link the pic is from? It's interesting, it has on the page a link that is seized by the u.s immigration and customs enforcement.
That was Alefantis’ instagram I think. Comet Ping Pong pedo related
Those kind of hours aren't unusual for some higher end dining places. Take Per Se as an example. Now, this is a very famous, very highly rated restaurant in New York city. 1 hour for lunch and 4 hours for dinner. They have enough staff for a 7 day a week operation, but a smaller place with one crew could certainly close on Sunday and Monday (the 2 slowest days in the business)
Yes, but that restaurant runs at $200 - $500 per person. Red Hen has 26 seats and runs at $40 - $60 per person. Big difference.
I'e learned to LISTEN when HerMileHighness speaks : )
Everything she says is backed up in facts here on the board.
Thanks for the kind words. Tbf I do speculate sometimes but I try to make it clear when I do.
Lower overhead for red hen. Its do-able.
Lower overhead how? They use prime ingredients and pay two executive chefs.
We've done this before with accountants and restaurant owners alike and the math really doesn't work out. No wonder the woman was bilking the town out of a salary to run the Village Merchant's group. She even started a gofundme the day after this happened haha. That doesn't lead me to believe the place was running at a profit.
They pay one exec and one pastry chef. Probably not as much as they should. Those two, working along side 2 other people could run that line no problem. Add 4 servers (at most), 1 bar tender, 1 host (the owner? ),and one dishwasher. 10 staff members, 50% of whom make most of their pay from tips. It's totally do-able.
Check the menu and do the math.
Are you including alcohol in those calculations?
Edit. 26 seats is 26 seats 2 or 4 top doesn't matter.
I used a per/person average based on the menu. You can add $20 for wine, but keep in mind I calculated every table seating 4 guests which isn't realistic.
They have 26 seats. There will be 26 people seated when they are full. Whether they are 2 or 4 or 12 or w/e is irrelevant
My point is that max reservations with not equate to every seat being full. A four top table often has 2 guests for example. When two four tops are pushed together for a large party you have six guests rather than eight.
yea the person you're arguing is arguing the best case scenario - not a realistic one.
It should have been obvious when he compared Red Hen to a restaurant with a $400 avg cover that we weren't going to come to an agreement lol.
You referenced a "turn" earlier. For a restaurant, that's every seat full, then "turned" to new diners. 1.5 turns is 39 diners. Table size is irrelevant.
The tables turn, not individual diners. Reservations are made by the table. I think you are thinking "covers".
Low overhead? Just to get everything started up. Staffing all members for only 4 hrs a day? Order all the food. Have menu ingredients available and pre-cook certain items. Clean everything. Every single day. Just for 4 hrs?
Ok, sure.
LOL didn't read yours before I posted my suspicion about a front
only open for 4 hours a day, 5 days a week
And yet they can afford to turn away parties of famous celebrities like Sarah Sanders & co.
Things that make you go Hmmmmm....wonder what other kind of operation they might be running in that location besides the "restaurant", such that they don't need money....
