Economic Boycott

Apr. 6, 2008

Tagged with: food, grandview, restaurant

Columbus Restaurant Forum
	RE: Columbus Restaurant Forum Written by: Sam DeTillio April 4th, 2008 10:13.20 pm Rob DeTillio chef of Thom 's on Grandview was recently fired because the owner claimed he couldn't afford to pay him. So i would like to ask everyone who reads this to boycott going to Thom's on Grandview because the food will not be nearly as good as when my father worked there. P.S: be aware of the seafood

Joke? Prank?

Did Columbus blogs who really are about food and restaurant hear from Sam?

If it is for real ...how old is Sam?

While I can't recommend this Grandview restaurant since I have NOT eaten there, I would hate to see Sam get his wish that people boycott the restaurant because they are struggling... What about the waiter / waitresses families? ... what about the rest of the kitchen staff .... bus boys... etc. I don't think calling for the boycott of a restaurant that had to lay off an employee for financial reasons makes any sense.

There are reviews on the restaurant website from the Grumpy Gourmet, Columbus Monthly and others...

Thom's on Grandview

My sympathies to this chef's family... Hope you find another job quickly.

I wonder about the cryptic mess sage at the end...

"be aware of the seafood"
