The previous owners weren't THAT OLD, but the new ones are quite a bit younger 
than them.  

Never heard any stories about spilling or stumbling, but one customer reports 
the following:  As he was sitting at the counter eating, the cook was flipping 
burgers at the grill.  Suddenly, a cockroach ambled across the counter, the 
cook turned around and smacked the bug with his large spatula.  The cook 
immediately returned to flipping burgers with his spatula.

Rest assured the new cooks do not do this, nor are there any bugs there left 
since the janitorial service has become much more frequent than in the old 
days.  :>
