I think a 5 star restaurant starts with a famous chef.

Or you could become a famous chef.  Faking is probably easier, though 
less sure.

I'd advise coming up with a name that's French.  "Jamie's Bar and 
Grille" does not have the flair, drama and obscurity of something in 
French.

As usual Jamie shows his ignorance every time he tries to look smart.  A real
top-end restaurant would be a 4 star restaurant, as reviewed by the Michelin
Travel Guide.

But anyway, the answer is "service".  Perfect service, in addition to the
perfect food.  The second time you dine there they know your name and quirks,
and are happy to indulge.

It will be interesting to see what becomes of jp2 in the real world 
where, unlike here, people who have some authority over him, such as 
bosses and customers, will find out what a jerk he is.

Yeah, but it's very hard to get elected by telling voters how stupid they 
are, even if you're right...

#13 of 24 by other on Mon Apr 29 01:48:06 2002:

Now, telling them how CRIMINAL they are, on the other hand....

ACtually, scott is entirely incorrect.  5 stars or 5 diamonds is the rating
to strive for.  Screw michelin.

Here is a list of 2002 5 Diamond restaurants according to AAA:

Mobile also gives out an exclusive 5 star rating to restaurants and lodging.

Jamie, to further research this project, I think we should take a field trip
to the Inn at Little Washington.  YOur treat.

And, I've had your chili and your brownies.  Ok - you chili is Cinci style
chili and is quite good.  Honestly.  Your brownies?  Sweetie - they were 1/2"
thick, if that, as you had apparently eaten half the batter.

#20 of 24 by jmsaul on Mon Apr 29 13:54:31 2002:

Hmm.  Can I have the recipe for the chili?

#21 of 24 by edina on Mon Apr 29 14:04:17 2002:

It's in the food cf on m-net, in the ietem where I'm soliciting recipes.

#22 of 24 by jmsaul on Mon Apr 29 15:26:48 2002:

Whoa.  I think I owe you a recipe from months back...

#23 of 24 by edina on Mon Apr 29 16:24:14 2002:

You do.  But I wasn't going to be bitchy about it.

#24 of 24 by jmsaul on Mon Apr 29 17:16:23 2002:

You maybe should have.  I'll go find my Szechuan cookbook...
