  • Western Carolinian February 17, 1994 Features 7 Fat Cats & Munchies: New food for thought in Cullowhee Neal Braswell Staff Reporter For those of you who have eat in out lately, there are some delicious new additions to Cullowhee.Two new local restaurants have opened this semester, "Fat Cats" and "Munchies." These newcomers promise to bring some variety to Cullowhee's menu, offering delicious food, friendly service and great prices. "Fat Cats" is located across the street from the post office. It was started when students Chad Pharr, Jason Tardo and Shannon Ferguson got together and decided to open their own restaurant. The three friends had worked at restaurants previously and decided to pool their talents. Chad, who is the sole proprietor of "Fat Cats," got a loan for the land, and they began work last January. They had to remodel the building and work out all of the details which go along with owning a restaurant. Fortunately Chad knew an electrician and carpenter by the name of Todd James who helped them with wiring the equipment and the building. Chad said, "We knew what had to be done, and everything just came together. It started happening, and the next thing I knew we were packed from the beginning." Chad also said that he placed an ad in the CAP center offering jobs to students. He went on to say that approximately 75% of the employees at "Fat Cats" are Western students. "Fat Cats" offers a wide variety of foods. The menu ranges from appetizers like onion rings and chicken tenders to specialty items and dinners such as chicken stir fry and pork chops. They also serve salads and subs and of course, hamburgers. Jason Tardo, a cook at "Fat Cats," said that the most popular foods served are their grilled turkey sub and their hot buffalo wings. "They're so hot we have to make people sign a waiver to eat them" Jason said. If you don't want to go out to eat, "Fat Cats" will bring the food to you through their recently opened delivery service. The other delicious addition to Cullowhee is the new restaurant, "Munchies." It is located next to Wachovia and has been open to the public since the end of January. "Munchies" is owned and operated by John Oliver, who hales from Winston Salem. He was very interested in opening a restaurant in this area. John has big plans for the future of "Munchies" and is planning to do some renovations. John said that he is trying to create a very contemporary atmosphere at "Munchies." He also mentioned adding a juke box. "I think the future 'Munchies' looks very positive" John said. John has always wanted to own his own restaurant. His restaurant experience comes from working at other restaurants where he learned to cook and wait tables. One thing that John feels very strongly about is customer satisfaction. "You have to treat your customers right" he said. The "Munchies" menu has a variety of delicious foods and entrees. They have burgers, subs, pizzas and side orders like baked potatoes, potato skins and fried cheese. John said that the most popular specialties are their buffalo wings and ribeye steak sandwiches. Not only does "Munchies" have a variety of delicious foods at great prices, but they also have daily specials. "Munchies" recently added a delivery service with free delivery for students. * TOTALL tu Information Age brings changes Michael Casey Staff Reporter With the information highway on the horizon. North Carolina's rural areas must ask themselves if they are willing to commit to changes which will bring their economies out of the stagnation they have endured for so long. State leaders and other of ficials ha ve talked for years about twoNorth Carolinas. The first is urban where the economy flourishes due to support by financial institutions and big industry. The second is rural where slow economic growth has been attributed to little or no industrial development, causing the economy of these areas to stagnate. The rural areas have the chance to strengthen their economies if the proper steps are taken to preparetor and learn about this new system. At the electroni c forum held in five locations simultaneously statewide January 5, Governor Jim Hunt pointed out the advantages of this new system, which indude statewide computer link ups between schools and between hospitals. The traditional pleas for better roads and sewer systems take a backseat to the need for improvement in the area of telecommunications. According to a recent study by the North Carolina Rural Economic Development Center 60% of the businesses sampled considered these improvements most important. Governor Hunt, stated that the first step the rural areas can take is to hold information meetings concerning this system. The second step is for county leaders as well as school officials to reevaluate their budgets so that they will be able to finance this program. Public school systems must be willing to allocate funds for new equipment so that they can become successful riders on the "information highway." In order to promote the success of this program, the excitement about itmust first flow out of Raleigh and into these rural communities. The potential for success is there, but these areas must be willing to make the appropriate changes so that the information age does not pass them by. When does a date become a crime? It happens when a man forces a woman to have sex against her will. And even when it involves college students, it's still considered a criminal offense. A felony. Punishable by prison. So if you want to keep a good time from turning into a bad one, try to keep this in mind. When does a date become a crime? When she says "No." And he refuses to listen. Against her will is against the law. e> 1990 Rape Treatment Center, Santa Monica Hospital.
