While I don't have any strong opinions about private equity firms, it does suck when they purhase a restaurant you love and then ruin it. I guess the optimistic view is that it leaves holes in the markets for new places to take their spot, and in the end I get to try more great things. But I still longingly reminisce about the others as one would a friend who started dating the wrong person, took on all their worst traits, and alienated those closest to them. But at least they have their shiny new roller skates.
