Weaver was only the "sauce" chef.

Yes, it's bad anytime a business closes, but in this case it comes as no surprise.  The quality of the food and service has never been consistant.  Turn over has always been a problem as I understand Ms Meeker is no fun to work for.  The place has been subsidized since the beginning by the well healed investor/owners.  Former judge Weaver has been employed as a cook there for some time, so I guess he's out of work again.

 According to the journal, Ms Meeker has not been involved in the operation of the restaurant for some time, but maybe the journal is wrong?

Apparently nobama never gave his best advice on how to keep this place open; as it were! They obviously never received any democrat assistance on keeping the doors open! So sad!

Obviously....they never built that....business!

I was informed by a former Button Factory employee that their final paychecks were of the rubber variety, and that there was an orgy of drinking after close on the final day as the staff consumed what liquer remained.
