The Mint's extravagant interior
rtuwtf.com's review or I Can't Fit My Bling In My Thong
"..The review of The Mint mentions that the City of Raleigh gave the restaurant group $1-Million to invest in the interiors. Well, it sounds as though the million dollars is really visible in the interior design, literally. Reading about The Mint reminds me of foreboding scenes in films like Wall Street: the money is flowing, it’s raining diamonds and then you start to feel some apprehension; this can’t last, something bad is about to happen and you can feel it.
Well, flip through the N&O to the business section and look at that stock market graph and the blurb about heading into a recession. Will we look back in a few years and wonder: “Remember when people used to wear T-shirts about money and then they built that restaurant about money?” Ah, these are the days!"
