TXRH - did I miss a thread on changed requirements?

So, I pulled up the instructions tonight and they say:

You must sit at the bar top on a bar stool. If there are no
bar stools available, you can wait or leave and come back
later. YOU MAY NOT EVALUATE THE BAR FROM A BAR TABLE.
» Please order an appetizer or entrée with your drink
» Please order at least one alcoholic or non-alcoholic
beverage other than water.
» You may not consume more than one alcoholic beverage
per person. Must be 21 or older to order alcohol. Alcohol is
not required.
» You may not be accompanied by any guest under the age
of 21. You may dine alone or with one guest.
» Allow all members of the staff to do their jobs. For
example, give your Bartender a chance to offer you a
specific drink, appetizer, or entrée before your order.
» Stay at the bar for a minimum of 40 minutes.


Appetizer OR entree? I thought it was both, when did that change?
40 minute minimum? I thought it was either 45 or 50, did that change?

$45 reimbursement, I think that is the same.

I beleive this has been the same for at least 6 months.
So, like they were the same for a very long time, then changed for a hot moment and now they're back closer to how they always were?
That looks amazingly similar to the guidelines that were in place the last time I did a dinner at the bar shop (long before the Pandemic shut down).
I've shopped them for years, but have only shopped them twice this year so far, so it depends on your timeframe. That thread ran from about Feb through April.
Some here apparently shop them far more often than I do and some, far less.
I haven't shopped them for a few years, but this has always been the case.

Also far fewer photos. I thought I screwed it up the other night. The relaxed ordering helps as well when I am by myself. It's now a really painless shop and survey form.
Is one allowed to copy, paste, and post the shop guidelines verbatim?
One would be doing a lot of work. Just sign up for one next time you see one.
the ones i did a few months ago you had to order an appetizer and entree so certainly glad that changed! sadly, i've now been taken off this client list. 😭. luckily my husband is still on.
I think you may be remembering requirements for a different shop. I know of another chain where a portion of the seating is at high top tables near the bar and seating is self-directed unless you want a table in the standard dining room area. Different place, different requirements.
nelly,
can I ask why you were taken off the list?

This shopper has already replied to your other thread, which was mainly about nothing.
