|
|
I haven't been to Reno for a few months but we all know of the " $400 MILLION ..." construction project(s) going on at the P Mill.
Well today I got an e mail from them with a pic and some info I thought I should share with y'all.
First let me say I'm old enough to remember John Kennedy's " Ich bin ein Berliner..." quote. Even back then, I knew enough German to know the correct translation for JFK was, " I am a creamy cupcake".
Which is a long way around to inquire why would the P Mill would open another new restaurant and name it, " Cookies" or maybe "Crackers".
From Dictionary.com: "Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source - Share This
bis·cot·to /biˈskɔttɔ; Eng. bɪˈskɒtoʊ/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[bee-skawt-taw; Eng. bi-skot-oh] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun, plural bis·cot·ti /biˈskɔtti; Eng. bɪˈskɒti/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[bee-skawt-tee; Eng. bi-skot-ee] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation. Italian.
A COOKIE OR A CRACKER."
And another thing... What the hell did the P Mill do with Virginia Street? look at this picture:

Note to John:
MY e mail also had this dead link with what should have been a web page version of my e mail:

Maybe you should let them know they hired the wrong web master... |

JD, the link now works for some odd reason. Maybe their webmaster read your post. They didn't hire me to do their site because I don't charge enough.
And yes, Virginia Street is now gone in front of the Peppermill. |

|

Since I have no life to speak of, I often try to figure out just what is being said in those press releases.
This propensity to snoop with my past career as a spy, leads me to click on that Anise flavored cookie "Biscotti" link provided in my e mail: E mail - Biscotti's =
http://www.peppermillreno.com/dining/biscotti_s
Odd, that couple dining at BISCOTTI'S looks A LOT like this couple dining at Romanza: P Mill Home - Dining - Romanza =
http://www.peppermillreno.com/dining/romanza
WAIT... They are even the same meal !! |

I just got a mailer that said to visit anytime in December for a three night complimentary stay in the new tower. It looks like they will open earlier than the December 15th that is mentioned on the webpage?
Alison -next visit in March? The new car smell will be gone by then. |

It's odd enough that they're sets of twins and having the same meal, but why did the Peppermill decorate Biscotti's exactly the same as Romanza? They must have saved a few bucks in architect's fees. |

Alison when in March are you going? I looked at their website and it will only show a price for the first week in March or so?! You can't beat that deal! |

Sorry Alison I meant Southwest Airlines showing a price for just the first week in March. I figured Peppermill has to open their arms to one of their biggest fans! I am sure you will have a ball.
