Don’t get me wrong. I grew up at the awesome Ground Round in Danvers where you could watch little film strip movies, play games, and chuck peanut shells and popcorn all over the floor. It was fantastic.
Fast forward, however, to now….and to Halibut Point Restaurant.
I love it there. I’m all for a quick meal and a beer sitting at the bar talking with Jack. I’m also not afraid to dive into the basket of peanuts that is inevitably placed directly in front of me. I do, however, while snacking….place my shells in the extremely convenient glass bowl that is ALWAYS strategically placed in close proximity to the peanuts themselves. What I don’t do is channel my inner 7 year old….and chuck the shells all over the floor.
So, that being the case, I was a little surprised to watch someone eating peanuts and throwing the shells with reckless abandon…this way and that…all over the floor last night (that may be a slight exaggeration).
So, I ask you… If and when you happen to dine at Halibut Point…do you use the bowl or do you chuck shells on the floor? Be honest.


You are correct, I can’t imagine where Joe gets the impression that a lot of your posts have to do with drinking…lol…

Loved and Miss the Ground Round. Don’t forget the big screen with the cartoons playing. The 99 couldn’t come close to replacing it. Thanks for the throw back post

Somebody got to pick them up and clean up better to use bowl…I see this in a children’s park where people through a lot of items broken glass – and it’s where little kids play and old folks sit to talk – Just don’t like picking up after others just me! 🙂 Dave
