Sound Bites This Weekend (in Behind the Food)

Bite Guitar A delicious combo that will be sure to excite all of your senses is a new event to West Chester – Sound Bites. This happening is designed as a complimentary event to promote The 25th Anniversary of The Turk’s Head Music Festival. Sound Bites is an appetizer if you will to the main entrée, THMF, which happens at Everhart Park on Sunday July 15 2007 featuring eleven bands playing from noon till eight pm.

You can enjoy a great variety of music and tastes and help a good cause. Wrist bands are on sale now at West Chester Recreation, 401 East Gay Street, West Chester for $15.00. Part of the proceeds from the sale of the wrist bands will benefit West Chester Recreation’s, “Send a Kid to Camp Fund”. This wrist band allows you entry into seven great restaurants in the downtown area at no extra cover charge. It also entitles you to some great specials that will be offered at each location.

The venues and bands are as follows:

Barnaby’s will be hosting Inity a “rough rugged reggae band on the rocks” from 4pm – 8pm (http://www.myspace.com/inity)

Comment Guidelines

Be Respectful. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?: Although the old saying, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," is swell, we encourage constructive feedback (ie, be polite), and recommend backing-up your comments with evidence/witnesses.
Be Honest. Look where it got Abe Lincoln. Well, before the evening at the theater.: We don't recommend complaining just for the sake of it (see number 1), but if you have a legitimate comment, it should be shared. Also, don't hesitate to disagree with other comments, even if your opinion is in the minority. If patrons aren't honest about their experiences, restaurants won't know that there is room for improvement. And there always is.
Be Specific. "The food was good" doesn't cut it.: Each dining experience is unique, so if a dining experience moves you in any way, by all means, share the details. Choose the sensory details that impacted your experience the most and describe them in your postings. Other foodies will gobble it up—literally.
Be Concise. 'Nuf said.: What? We thought it was pretty clear the first time.
Be Helpful. Sort of like how the elves and reindeer help Santa.: Will what you have to say improve the restaurant's ability to provide impeccable service and improve the dining experience for others (again, see number 1)? If so... help away.
Show a Little Pride. No Jane or John Does please.: If you are too embarrassed to put your name as the commenter, you probably should re-evaluate your comments (you know the drill... see number 1). If you have sensitive information that you feel needs to be passed along, please use your best judgment and e-mail it to us to avoid public posting. We don't want you to have any post-post regrets.
Don't Name Names. Let's not get too personal here.: We know you want to share your experiences, both good and bad, but this isn't the place to publicly condemn or praise individual people. Feel free to comment on "the service", "the chef", or "the staff", but any positive or negative mention of specific names will be moderated.
