Pre-opening of Chuck Muer's Seafood Tavern at the former lo- cale of Bloomfield Charley's, Pals and Red Robin, West Maple near Orchard Lake Road, was a crammed affair. Over 500 people ate so much at the various buffet stations, plus passed around hors d'oeuvres, that Jim Blake, C.A. Muer Corp. executive chef, came out at in- tervals but couldn't stay long be- cause so much had to be done in the kitchen ... the food kept going fast. It makes one wonder where people put it all ... even if it is free ... No charge for the drinks either, and a lot of waste as folks left cocktails standing while they went to the bar for another ... Bet they wouldn't do this if just giv- en a couple of tickets. Seems like a lot of people were having a good time, though, and this is the way a pre-opening should be ... The Hans Muer Trio played, guys gals laughed and met others they hadn't seen in years.
