Capital Grille Generous Pour

The fact that you were able to shop two locations for this limited rotation and I didn't have the opportunity to do any is very frustrating.

NinS, I didn't get the amuse bouche either!

Priced like a buffet. Direct your policing and pricing questions to TCG!!!

Please don't feed the MSF trolls!

Feeding the MSF trolls bread or other human food is detrimental to their health and the environment. It can lead to malnutrition, disease, and behavioral problems in trolls, as well as water pollution and the spread of pests. Trolls are capable of finding their own food sources and don't require human assistance.
Dafizisblue: They were posted around July 3 and my applications were approved on July 5, so some people may not have been looking at the boards over the holiday. (I never saw an email so I'm not sure when it went out.) Hopefully they'll run this again next year and you can grab one!
I look almost every day. I may have missed one day which was probably the day it was posted.
Yes, they stiffed me with that too!

That's a long time to wait. You mentioned that you were able to detail a few things that were missed by the staff during your shop. Same for me, and I'm sure for other shoppers as well. Maybe the client will realize that they would benefit from being shopped regularly.

This is one of my all time favorite shops. I am so glad it’s back. I was too late to get one assigned this round. Congrats to those who did!!!

FYI, I just received word back from the MCS's scheduling dept that "the Capital Grille assignments were a limited time assignment only for the month of July." :-(

Apparently, the info I received was incorrect, as I just picked up a CG shop for August. Good luck!

You are so frigging awesome!!! I don't log in and look at MSF much anymore, but happened to stop by just now to see the word on some other subjects, saw this thread - read your post and snagged one myself!! Thank you!!
I just got a Capital Grille. And got it for my birthday, but I don't think I will tell them since I have order dessert anyway.
I will refrain from bragging even further. smiling smiley

Got one for August. A little nervous about it. We are not heavy drinkers and I have medical issues. Hope we both can "sip".

You're only required to order one GP, and you can definitely sip without any judgement. I've done this shop several times in the past, and we sipped some of the wines because they didn't taste good, we preferred other varieties, etc.
NinS and soonerself, thank you! To date, I've received the most value from your posts in this thread. smiling smiley

Thanks yo this thread, I just accepted a generous pour for early August.

Shopping Southeast Pennsylvania, Delaware above the canal, and South Jersey since 2008
I was just able to self assign! My best friend lives about 70 minutes from me, and has helped me with a lot of heavy personal stuff this year, so he’s going to come in, and we’re going to have a tres fancy dinner together (he knows it’s a mystery shop, and he actually did a hotel/dinner shop with me a month or so ago, so, knows the basic routine of not eating before I photo “for the ‘gram”)
I did it! I hit the "backup" button when I first saw that the shop was taken. The description I thought said that it went through the summer........But I ended up being given the shop! FWIW, the location charged $50, not $45. Also, does that not seem like a lot for 12 oz of wine, even if there were different wines? We had no problem with sharing issues as my guest did not drink wine.
I thought the same since I usually get single glasses of wine (which are about 5 oz) elsewhere for no more than $12. I guess the "experience" adds value to this though.

A couple of years ago when they were doing this I was celebrating my partner's birthday -- i didn't worry about ordering a second dessert as I had one to review and I got zero push back and since I think we would have gone a touch over without dessert it kept out of pocket expenses down.
