When you dine out, you might think about the ingredients that go into your food, but you probably don’t think about all the numbers that make your meal happen. Restaurants are filled with interesting figures that might not be apparent when you bite into an enticing entrée or take a sip of a signature cocktail, but they’re all around you.
This week we take a stately walk over to the seasonal small plates eatery Lincoln. In between doing our best presidential impressions, we find out the number of eggs they crack open every week, just how many house-made rolls they bake, and the shocking number of copper cups have been pilfered by patrons.
