"The worlds best restaurant" closes it's doors

"The worlds best restaurant" closes it's doors...... El Bulli, owned by award-winning chef Ferran Adria, will mark the end of a remarkable 27-years with a special sitting for staff and their families A Spanish restaurant repeatedly voted the best in the world has served its final dish to the public and is closing its doors for the last time They are only open 6 months out of the year. Apperantly they were not really turning a profit. that would explain the not turning a profit thing... businesses that are restrictive hours are the same as well. several local businesses had to shut down in my area becuase nobody came to buy stuff... they were only open during regular business hours, a time where not very many working people can show up to buy stuff. the places with expansive hours tend to do better since they can make more money from the evening traffic and rush after work. peak shopping times in my locale are from 2pm-10:30PM. Any time before that is dead....

Time for sadness---->Borders bookstores closes down

RE: RIP: Borders Books This was one of the rare good hangout spots in my area. I would go and read manga and drink coffee from the seattle's best place... then I would buy some of the manga I liked and it was a good way to spend the evening. Now that they are leaving there are very few good hangout spots in my area and there's nowhere else that sells manga! I would have to order online and wait 1 week or more to get it and I just wanna pick it up that same day! This is depressing.
