Restaurant Owner is True to His Word

trattoria.png

 

Trattoria 903 of Jim Thorpe, PA "offers specials based on what is available in markets," which might explain why the owner has been charged with breaking into the freezer of a nearby Dollar General by cutting a hole from the outside wall.

 

He might have gotten away with the heist but his car got stuck on a septic tank cover.

 

Maybe he needed bacon, eggs or cheese?

I can't even wrap my mind around that.  You gotta wonder about what's coming out of that restaurant's kitchen.

Wow!  I always thought "what's available in the markets" meant what could be found at farm stand or farmer's markets!

around here they use the phrase "farm to table" to mean fresh and local rather than "whats available in the markets." to me that sounds like whatever we can find in the wholesale/restaurant supply stores is what we use.

I wouldn't have expected Dollar General food in a restaurant.

 

Regardless, his reviews on Yelp are pretty good - overall, four stars out of five, 242 reviews - but they've been sliding in recent months.

He truly owns those words.

@sunshine45    To me, it sounded like that owner's idea was what he could steal locally

@PickyPicky3   I only saw that he drilled a hole into the freeze and into another part of the wall.  He dumped two shelves of the freezer onto the floor.

 

It looked like he was trying to enter DG to steal other products and not the frozen food.

 

Intersting that the registration for the vehicle he was driving was for a Volvo but he was driving a Ford Focus.
