We need new entrepenuers and landlords willing to rent them spaces. We need to build the political will for parking lots. We need a sensible limit on liquor licenses. We need more police precense as the area grows. We need to recruit secondary uses (doctors offices, dentists, small government agencies, small business offices, etc) Let's get some movement on issues that will make this a great corridor for decades all through the course of the day just not at night.

Did someone just post it once and it became the lingo or is it an actual restaurant industry term? I generally just assume most Italian places are heavy on the "red" sauce. But maybe there are higher end (or something) places that don't focus on it, hence the distinction. I just want to know if the term exists outside of this blog. Or maybe it is even the same person who uses it repeatedly.Dave Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-39705949989985839472011-03-30T11:34:12.377-04:002011-03-30T11:34:12.377-04:00Joe, what ever happened to the red sauce Italian p...Joe, what ever happened to the red sauce Italian place you were going to open? <br />I think it would do wonderfully, appealing to both families and hipsters alike.
