Rumors

Well, I have FINALLY found out the source of the rumors. For those of you that dont know what I'm talking about, there has been a rumor floating around town that we will be closing our restaurant. Not only is this information not true, we have had a hell of a time trying to pin down the source.

The restaurant industry (as well as other industries) is going through some difficult times right now. This is obviously due to the consumers amount of disposable income each week. And while the gas prices ARE helping a bit...$1.99 in my town...People definately are not going out to eat as much as they used to. Having said that let me also tell you that we here at Rovezzi's are having an Excellent year. Our percentages have not gone down at all. Each month we either meet last years sales or we exceed them. Thats quite a feet in this economy. I attribute it to hard work, passion and an understanding of the desire of the customer to get the best experience they can when they do choose to go out.

This brings me to my original point. The source of the rumors. It turns out that it is an employee from a competing restaurant here in Sturbridge. Its a sad statement on what people will do to get ahead, but I guess lacking the passion and dedication that we have at Rovezzi's, this person feels the need to sabotage a competitors business.

So there you go. Nothing but a bitter, sad spineless little weasle that doesnt have the fortitude...or the balls...to g to work each day and provide his guests with the remarkable dinig experience that they deserve.

So, If you come across this rumor, please just smile, nod, and tell the person that you've gotten your in formation straight from the horses mouth and the rumor is ABSOLUTELY false.

Yeah, I know it's somewhat late, but we have heard the rumors and were worried your place was closing so reading your blog is most reassuring as Rovezzis is our favorite. Thankx for the update and putting things right. We like to 'dine' rather than just 'eat-out' And there really is a big,big difference. My only disappointment is that 'calimari Livornese' has disappeared from the regular menu, although it can be specially ordered. It's a really wonderful appetizer and well worthy of being available for all customers.
