The Richmond, reinvented

i think oyu should have noted some of the people who are working in the resturant because they too have a following and would have brought is some business of thier own

Um, this is (supposedly) a news story, not an advertisement. Feel free to open up your own newspaper.

a person in the know

should be known that hotel owns the restaurant with drew running it

Looking in

Albany, NY

While lthe Richmond Grill is under the management of Drew Nicastro, it is the waitstaff and most importantly the kitchen staff who are making "The Grill" a success. I can't say enough about Mike, Adam, and crew. We have eaten here several times for dinner and can't say anything bad about the food or the staff. The salads are delicioous and evry entree we have had has been superb! No other establishment in town serves dinners pipping hot
The only negative at the moment is that they have not yet gotten their liuquor license from Boston (surprise, surprise). On evening our waiter even ran down the street to get us a bottle of wine to accompany our delicious meal --- now is that service or is that service?
I highly recommend this 4 STAR restaurant!
Best wishes all!

Good observation,"takethis ".

The little guy has had a "vision" for the last twenty-four years.

What exactly is his vision?

If he hasn't figured it out in all this time, I'd say he never will.

Why doesn't he tear down the whole town, and start from scratch.

I wonder if it was only a suggestion, or really a mandatory suggestion, like we all know barrett's suggestions are.

I find this subject fascinating,"first thing" but it would more appropriate, if I created a "slum-lord propaganda" forum just for you.

Don't be ashamed of who or what you are. If people like you want to be a slum landlord you have that right. Have a good week collecting rents from your tenants,first of the month must be busy for you.

not you

In the article it does state that the mayor had input into the opening of the restaurant. The name, his "vision", give me a break. I wouldn't be surprised if the liquor license wasn't held hostage here. It wouldn't be the first time, just ask the Weisbrodt's, among others.
Yes, sometimes these posts get way off track, but the second that the mayors name get mentioned in any article, and it's in every one of them, well he drags himself into this mess.

I know that reading is not your strong suit but if you read the article you would know the license is being held up in "Boston"
