The HVAC cooling was that bad
I love eating out. So the last year has been really tough when it comes to dining. For sure, I’ve spent the past year and half not straying too far from the air conditioning security of my home. I’m actually still working from home and may make it a permanent situation. For some reason, I’m far better doing my job from home in my own HVAC comfort than at the office with the zone controlled HVAC. Still, being at home so much has been tough for both my wife and myself when it comes to dining. We are both really into food and wine so dining out was something that we truly loved to do together. Once we were vaccinated, we still held off on indoor dining. However, there were a few restaurants that were following strict virus protocols and we gave one of them a shot. The place we chose to eat out for the first time came recommended to us. And I can see why given how exquisite the food was. The service was also simply impeccable. However, we were really surprised at how bad the HVAC cooling was in this place. I even asked the manager if the air conditioning was broken. He sheepishly stated that it wasn’t but the ownership just didn’t want to upgrade the HVAC equipment. That’s too bad. They won’t be seeing us again unless they start a take out menu. The HVAC cooling was that bad. But for us, we’re not paying top dollar for excellent food, service and wine only to be sweating through our meal because of poor HVAC cooling.
