For our last review of the year, we decided to do an over—all survey of the restaurants we have visited this year. Takeeouts and restaurants will be done separatEly. For the restaurants, headings will be: service, prices, food, and decor. Each will be rated on a scale of l—lO, with a total out of 40 indicating our overall opinion of the place. The take-outs will be done in the same way except that the headings will be service, prices,

food and cleanliness.

Note: the Gondolier will be included in our list, even though it«was recently burnt out, since we did visit it.

To find out which restaurant you want to patronize pick your thing and go for the highest rating. It may seem that many of the totals are the same, when the respective restaurants may appear to be vastly different. in quality. This is where the different categories come in. If a takeout decided to sell Gainesburgers at 10¢ apiece, their food would get a low rating, but it would be balanced out by the high rating the 10¢ price tag would get. This is why the totals may appear similar.

In closing we would like to say that we have greatly enjoyed doing this series of articles. We regret that, due to lack of time and/or funds, we were unable to review all Charlottetown's restaurants, and hope that next year someone takes our place and does them up. Thanks for reading us and for your support, comments , and feedback. Good luck in the exams.

lighting, nice carpet, col— onial type furniture, not to mention the prompt, friendly Service from the waitresses. The Gallows presents a light atmosphere‘and a touch of class to the travelling bus- inessmen who frequent the place.

I sure wish they'd do away with that boring, piped in music that comes out of the ceiling. But the prices tend to make the music a lit- tle more bearable; 60¢ for a

G.Bon_dtPlaces 5th. in Men’s Fencing

At a fencing meet held in Fredericton on March 16, the UPEI Fencing Club won the N.B. Shield trophy in' the men's foil team event. The UPEI team, consisted of Gerard BSndt, Tom MacMillan and Lothar Zimmermann, de— feated teams from Maine 6 N-B- In a previous compe- tition, thejLieutnant Gov-

beer and 80¢ for shots dur— ing the day; 90¢ & $1.00 at night. It's a nice mellow out of the way place that \ you might want to try on

a quiet evening.

Crows Nest

At the site of the former

Gondolier Restaurant. Not much happening here.

Lots of atmosphere though. Actually, the Crows Nest /Lounge isn't what it used to be; windows boarded over tarpaulins covering what's left of the remains. GEE.

Smuggler's lug

‘I'll let you in on a little secret about the Smuggler's Jug. I have ‘ word from an inside sou—. rce (close to the action,

‘one might say) that Marg. Elsinga is going to wear rubber boots down there.r

But, rubber boots on the waitresses not withstand— ing, I'll have to say there is nothing about the Jug that I don't like. The decor is pretty, the wait— resses friendly, the music is modern, and the prices are reasonable. I espec— ially like the antique

jugs and wagon wheel fra— mes that adorn the walls & fireplace. It's an unus— ual touch that blends with the old fashioned atmosphere.

The Jug is open from 12 noon untill 1:00 am' six nights a week. Prices are 80¢ for beer and 95¢ for a shot of liquOr all day ex— cept for the 5-7 o'clock Happy Hour when prices are 65¢ and 85¢. The Jug draws mainly a University type of crowd.

Well maybe there is one thing I could complain a- bout; they don‘t change the music tapes often en— ough. After listening to Paul McCartney & Tom Jones all Fall and Winter, I was relieved to hear Crosby Stills,Nash and Young. But it's been more than a month and I'm still hearing Cros- by Stills Nash and Young. How about a little variety you guys: Maybe I'm being a little pickey, but a con— troversial complaint always spices this column up a bit. (P.S. Don't change anything else though; except maybe the rubber boots.)
