YEA !!! / Restaurant owner bans ALL children under six

In an email to regular customers, owner Mike Vuick said: 'We feel that McDain's is not a place for young children. 'Their volume can't be controlled and many, many times, they have disturbed other customers.' Under state law, restaurants cannot ban the elderly, because they fall into a protected class, but there is no law to stop children not being served.

REVIEW / Zuckerello’s (Italian) Maintains Their Reputation as a Consistent Delight. Fort Lauderdale

SCENE: "The dining room is extensive with different seating areas of tables and booths... 
STARTERS "an order of fish cakes sounded like a good beginning... crisp on the exterior and brimming with moist fish on the interior"
ENTREE The veal parmesan... was tender with a marinara that was neither too tangy nor too sweet... My partner loved the combination of the saucy, braised lamb shank served over risotto."
PEOPLE "Service at Zuckerello’s is friendly and efficient"  It clearly has a regular following in the area, which explains why it has remained while so many other restaurants have come and gone."
