We used to go to dinner at the drop of a hat, especially at the end of a workweek. It took a job crisis to make my parents rethink their priorities and start to make meals at home more frequently. But, there does come a time when going out to eat is a necessity. That was last Friday.
My Dad loves Houlihan's and we had no hesitation to go there. The food is good, prices reasonable and usually we take food home to have another lunch or dinner. It was also the day after St. Patrick's Day and we predicted that since the place was probably hopping the night before, it would be empty that day. We were correct. Anyway, we got there and saw the manager we came to know when we went there on a more frequent basis. He came over to our table and said that he would like to pay for appetizers for the family. I was totally amazed and took him up on the offer. For three of us it saved us a tidy sum of money but I was very appeciative of his offer. It made going out to dinner that much sweeter.
