            <description><![CDATA[OK  Here&#39;s my rant.  I know I can take my money and go elsewhere, and I will in the future.  This is a trend in restaurants that pisses me off.<br><br>No matter when I go the Spaghetti Factory in downtown San Jose, they tell you 20- 30 minute wait,  maybe an hour maybe 2.  Was there July 31 at 5PM.  Give the hostess our name get the pager, and say to my son, let&#39;s look at the street car.  Well the whole F&#39;in room is empty!  What are we waiting for.  We look at the cable car for a second or two, and see there is ONE occupied table in the street car.The street car is cool and old fashioned we all agree.  We ask if we can get a table there.  WELL, that will mean a longer wait.  What do the need to maintain their inventory of empty seats.  Do they think our dining experience is enhanced by waiting!  That&#39;s my rant, and I feel better.]]></description>
