News about growing brands dominated the Current‘s most-read food stories this week — among them, Wayback Burgers expanding in SA and the owners of Little Em’s Oyster Bar launching a new venture.
However, a story about a local bar Bentley’s on Broadway raising its age limit to 25 from 21 outperformed the others by a wide stretch. We’re not sure whether to read that as a sign of approval for the owners’ decision or reader concern that they’ll no longer be able to belly up. Could be some of both.
From the week’s numbers, it’s also clear readers wanted to know more about trailblazing vegan restaurant chain Project Pollo’s appearance on Friday’s season finale of Shark Tank.
