    Posted by admin on June 20th, 2010 and filed under cafe restaurants | No Comments »

    The restaurant is decorated to depict some features of a generic rainforest, including plant growth, mist, waterfalls, animatronic robots of animals and insects. Large marine aquariumsare common in most restaurants. Automated water sprinklers and synchronized lights set to specific patterns are also featured. A simulated thunderstorm occurs every thirty minutes, utilizing simulated rain as well as flashing lights and high-powered subwoofers for lightning and thunder.There is a tree usually located in the gift shops named Tracy that talks and gives information on rainforests. Also, the restaurants are partitioned into several rooms by means of rain curtains that fall into basins running along the tops of partition walls and booths. The Rainforest Cafe has food ranging from seafood, beef,and chicken to pastas and pizzas. As well as its famous, award winning crab dip, there is also the tradition only carried out by Rainforest Cafe of yelling, “Volcano” when somebody orders a “volcano” sundae.

    The animatronic figures are manufactured by UCFab International, LLC of Apopka, Florida, USA. The star ceilings are designed and manufactured by Fiber Optic Systems Inc, located inWhitehouse Station, NJ. Rainforest Cafe restaurants also have a Retail Village, where rainforest themed merchandise is sold.

    ============================================
    Grand Cafe
    Fine old school dining that simply does not exist other then in NYC or Paris! Fair price for the quality. The staff are VERY professionals who h ave been doing this for an avg of 25 years! A must go if your in the area, or even not, its worth the trip!
    ========================================
    Grand Cafe is an overlooked jewel. Stop searching for the hippest nouvelle and enjoy truly great cooking, in an incredibly beautiful setting, with quite simply better service I’ve ever experienced in Manhattan or Europe. Never fail to order the restaurant-made smoked salmon
    ========================================

    Grand Cafe
    Diners seeking an elegant meal or outside dining should visit The Grand Cafe in downtown Morristown. This restaurant offers lunch and dinner and features an impressive wine menu. Entrees include smoked king salmon, oysters on the half shell, pan-seared ahi tuna, steak tartare, sauteed calves’ liver, escargot and fried duck. The atmosphere is intimate, the dress code is semi-formal, and the Grand Cafe features indoor and outdoor seating. It won The 2009/2010 Zagat Survey award for highest rating in Morristown, and Desmond Lloyd won a Restaurateur of the Year award from the New Jersey Restaurant Association.

    Wonderful dining experience. Professional service, excellent food! A few classic dishes, but also some very innovative dishes, try the lobster salad app and the Tuna entree. The decor is historic. Mahogany and oak with several private rooms that you should just ask to see. Its not cheap, but the value is there, no $9.00 baked potato etc. Wine list is impressive, you can go deep, but there is also a lot of reasonable choices. We will go back.
    ========================================

    One of the last outposts of civility. Grand is what it is; classy and polished; best service in New Jersey with Walter the catering manager and Kevin the maitre d’. Gorgeously decorated during the holidays, and warmed by the piano player on the weekends. Terrific smoked salmon, pork chops, among others. Nicely balanced wine list to cater to different pocketbooks.

    Why go anywhere else
    by vs79 at Citysearch
    Finally I found a restaurant that gets it. Excellent food, beautiful setting, professional service. My business brings me to restaurants all over the US and Europe, and The Grand Cafe is second to none. I was told about this place by a business associate. When I walked in I thought it was a new restaurant, I was surprised to see they have been in business for 26 years! Many of the same emploees from day one, that says something. I brought clients here who ended up bringing in thier wives a few weeks later. The maitre d’ remembered them and treated them like gold, which has helped me tremendously. If you have an important business meeting and want to ensure its success, go to The Grand Cafe, if you want to impress friends, go to The Grand Cafe. Try the warm lobster salad app. its a one of a kind, also the sauteed veal entree, the rackof lamb, or if they have it the dover sole (they do it right, not like some other spots) and you must have a soufle for dessert.

    Are there better tips at TGI Friday’s, Cool River Cafe, or nicer restaurants? What’s a better place to work?

    Posted by admin on May 29th, 2010 and filed under cafe restaurants | 1 Comment »

    at the airport

    Table-service fine-dining establishments always have the largest tips. The average bill is $60 per person. But there aren’t many of them at the airport. So all of the steak houses will have the same tips.
    The key is finding out how many tables each waiter gets. If you get 4 tables you aren’t going to make as much as if you get 7 tables. Visit at dinner and ask the hostess. She will tell you.

    New York Times Article
    The Grand Cafe in Morristown is as chichi as it gets in Morris County, according to Zagats restaurant guide. With wood panelling, stained-glass windows and waiters in black ties, the restaurant looks more old London club than New Jersey.
    This corner of New Yorks less glamorous neighbour state is famously home to The Sopranos, but it is also the preferred dormitory zone for many business leaders. Close enough to New York for a Wall Street commute, it is far enough away to build big homes with long drives. New Jersey offers many a rich mans most precious commodity — privacy.
    ==========================================
    .Wonderful dining experience. Professional service, excellent food! A few classic dishes, but also some very innovative dishes, try the lobster salad app and the Tuna entree.

    ==========================================
    Grand Cafe is the perfect location for a wedding rehearsal/anniversary or birthday dinner. First class service and great food. The Grand Cafe offers great value and will work with-in your budget. Give them a call.
