732 Social story

We got the March issue of Louisville magazine a couple of days back. Haven't seen any posts about this yet. Has anyone else read the cover story?

Read it yesterday. Afterwards I felt like I had just watched the neighbors break-up a rocky relationship. While both of them were standing in the front yard. With one person trying to leave while the other person screamed gibberish at them. Tears from one and wild eyed relief from the other. Tires screeching in the background as the last bitter epithet is flung into the air. Car turns the corner and slowly, slowly the one left on the lawn gathers themself up and walks back inside. They close the door quietly. I blink my eyes and have the strong urge to take a shower. Coda.

I had much the same feeling, Ed! All I could say was OY!

I think I will keep silent......I felt like taking a shower after reading it though.

Great description! Like what you described it's certainly a hard thing to see happen especially to a restaurant like this.

Is this article somewhere online?

I checked their website, but it's a pretty not-good website.

Started reading it, had to stop because I felt too sleazy. Will finish it when I am able to cope with the voyeuristic shame.

I read it and don't know if the reporting was one-sided or the story is that lop-sided and one of the parties is just plain nuts.

Might be more than one of those things? Who wrote the article?

Pardon me , I am so very out of touch with anything restaurant related lately so if this is old news I apologize...
I found an article dated Sept. 11 at the Louisville Insider website discussing this issue. It did sound a bit grim. I wonder why it's being rehashed again at this late date? Is the public's taste for gossip that insatiable?
Never mind, I think I know the answer to that.

For me, I had never seen the Louisville Insider bit about this so this isn't old news to me. Louisville Mag arrived in my mailbox and I read the article. Sorry I'm behind on the gossip.

Nothing to apologize for, Mike. I think Carla was asking why Louisville mag was late to the party, not why you were. :mrgreen:
