Today we had special guest and old friend Scott McDowell on the podcast. Scott is running the ship at Jak's Grill in West Seattle. We got deep in the woods on great restaurant stuff here!
We talked about restaurant closures, Irish pizza, chowder pizza, annoying QR code menus, work dreams and the how getting slammed is like going to war sometimes!
ENJOY!!!

Hammer and I have decided to give our livers a break for a while. In this podcast we try a ton of non-alcoholic beers, we prefer the dark ones.
We also discuss QR menu ordering at restaurants, self ordering, self checkout at stores and the hopes of us getting back to being social in restaurants again.
We also asked the age old question...Can I get a paper menu?
Enjoy
A wild first ride with special event coordinator and Christmas enthusiast Stephanie Housden!
