Alex – as a restaurant owner, I can tell you that it is incredibly annoying to put samples out for the public and watch some greedy b-stard gobble it all down, denying other potential customers the opportunity to try your food. That being said, it’s great to know that this board has a supreme arbiter of constructive/useless posts. Keep up your sample hoarding as well as your useless police work.

What ever happened to efficiency? I understand the Rock location is still new but there is no organization whatsoever. I went on Friday afternoon and all they had were chocolate cupcakes w/ chocolate frosting. Nothing else! How can you not have anything else?? Shouldn’t they anticipate? It’s not like it is their first location. Plus, I don’t know if anyone else has noticed but they always have racks of unfrosted cupcakes. FROST THEM. THEY’RE JUST SITTING THERE. The whole ‘cooling down’ thing is nonsense.

magnolia is sorry excuse for a bakery. their cupcakes are sub-par and the only reason they are still around is because of “sex and the city” reruns. no self-respecting new yorker should eat there – their service is horrible, rude and all of that might, just might be excusable if their cupcakes were any good but you can do much better at buttercup or billy’s in chelsea, which has the best cupcakes in NYC, hands down.

Rough day, Alex? Can’t figure out how to scroll past comments you don’t like to avoid wasting a few seconds of your oh-so-precious time? I’m enjoying this blog just fine, thanks. Sounds like *you* need to move on.

You’re truly a genius, Stevenp. Why didn’t we all come to that conclusion? I’m sick and tired of you wasting everyone’s time here. Go find something better to do.

Wow, Alex/Adam, I just held a mirror up to your post.

Hey “FrankieTony,” “Stevenp,” and “digdem” if you have nothing constructive to add, then don’t waste our time posting comments that add nothing to the discussion. I suspect that you’re all just too dumb to post anything of substance.

Agreed. They are samples, so that people can “sample” their goods and then buy them with money so that the business can profit off of its work. It isn’t a trough for greedy animals to lurk around while waiting for handouts. Go to a soup kitchen you cheapskate.
