BIG/EASY profits in liquor....so much added revenue for a restaurant!
It's the only way to go IMO. Now there are companies that perform
inventory liquor control so there is accountability and consistency with
sales tickets. No more bartender keeping the profits/giveways to increase
their own tips, etc.
Regarding Lake Place, we will go and keep going if the food is great...my
husband always drinks wine and I like my one or two grey goose citron vodka
with a splash of cran and lime
Its not usually a dealbreaker for me but if I was
younger it would have been! And sometimes still is!

We'll see. The track record of such places that only offer beer and wine is not good.
Lake Place has managed 20 years plus (less the time closed due to fire) with beer and wine only... pretty good track record!

The only 30-A fine dining establishment to operate continuously over the past five years WITHOUT a license is Cafe Tango, unless I'm mistaken.

I walked in last Friday, and walked out when I learned that the place had no liquor licence. I enjoy a martini with my haute cuisine. I predict that this place will fail. You need a full bar to succeed with a place like this, IMO.
Here's an idea. Go to Stinky's and order a stiff drink. Order a few. Then stagger less than a stone's throw over to Lake Place and enjoy. If you get the shakes, excuse yourself and walk back to Stinky's and order another. Then call Paradise Taxi to take you home...

Can anyone post a Lake Place menu? I went to the site but didn't see one.
