Q: Restaurant rules 101: If you are a manager, do not tell a table to hurry up and order "because this table is pre-booked." Just don't. I met my mom and her work friends at Bunky's this evening. We were waiting for two more people to show before we ordered dinner. We ordered two appetizers and a few people had ordered wine as well, so we weren't just sitting there. The manager told us that we needed to order soon as the table was pre-booked. Soon after, the remaining two arrived, but he proceeded to evil eye us the whole night. That is why Bunky's is getting a one star review right now. If a party is waiting on more people to show up before ordering, then either give yourself some cushion in table reservation scheduling, or have a policy of not seating parties until all members show up. To be fair, the squash cake appetizers were very good, as were the green beans. The ambiance was super cute (warm glowy, with old people photographs and old lady kitsch all around), albeit the energy was tense (Gee, I wonder why). The lentil soup was outstanding. So much so that I'd go back for it, even if management did leave a bad taste in my mouth. Pun intended. Entree: I ordered Tina's Pasta which is smoked salmon, fettuccine, sun-dried tomatoes with a dill cream sauce. Sounded good on paper, failed to deliver in real life. Tried the hummus. Nice texture. That's where it ends. Wants for more lemon. I'll admit that living in Lebanon has made me choosy in the hummus department, but still... I had a hunch about Bunky's concept of Italian and Mediterranean under one roof. I was right. I've seen other restaurants try to execute disparate cuisines. It never works. Just pick one and do it well, don't try to cover Italy, the Levant and North Africa on one menu. You don't get your sushi where you get your cheese curds. Don't get your falafel where you get your puttanesca. The end.

Q: Lindsay is truly the best! Lindsay is very professional and makes you feel really comfortable through the entire process! It was my first time getting by lashes done and I was a little nervous. Lindsay went over everything about each style of lashes that are available. I went with the 3D look...amazing! I now see her every 3 weeks for a fill! I get so many complements how natural my lashes look! I definitely recommend Lindsay!

Q: I'll make it simple. This shop is the cold nuts. If you have a VW take it here. I'll never take my VW anywhere else. Period. My son's Jetta was stolen. They found it on 19th Ave & Buskeye. Big surprise huh? Any way Independent removed the tranny, replaced the clutch and pressuure plate put it back in and we had it back in three days. THREE DAYS! I won't discuss cost because no job is identical but I will say that we felt very good about what our out the door costs were. Heck, they even threw in a missing oil cap for nothing.

A: positive

Q: I don't get the draw? The show was slow. Not quite as entertaining as I would have expected after hearing all the hype. Seemed like there were die hard fans there? They seemed to know what was coming next and ready to laugh,... I don't get the draw. I suppose I should have had a bunch of drinks prior? But then, as slow as the show was,... I would have probably been sleeping at some point. Ticket price was crazy for that poor of a show. I wouldn't go again or recommend.
