PEOPLE ^
CONTINUED FROM PAGE B:1
a person drives or how loud a
motorcycle should be?
A woman arrives to collect
the takeout order. Three
more patrons -two older
gentlemen and a woman
-seat themselves at the bar.
Patchin bids them hello.
"More locals," he says with a
smile, reminding the inter-
viewer that 200 people from
"a radius of about three
miles" signed a petition
of support on Kettle Ho's
behalf.
He mentions the al fresco
dining allowed on Main
Street in Hyannis where
diners may smoke cigarettes
and consume alcohol. "This
is all the same town isn't it?"
Perhaps. But, he concedes, it
isn't the same village.
Patchin has been running
the Kettle Ho for 15 years
with very few complaints
registered with the police, he
claims, and added that he is
befuddled by what he sees as
a sudden burst of criticism.
"Why now?"
A patron sitting at the bar
drinking what looks like a
soda on the humid afternoon
chimes in that he thinks it
might have something to do
with Patchin's decision to
lengthen the bar and forgo
breakfast and lunch hours
and open at 4 p.m., except
on weekends.
Indeed, one complain-
ant touched on that very
topic noting the place had
morphed from a space to eat
to a place to drink.
Patchin said he spent
years at the restaurant
all day and night working
himself to the bone. He said
he eventually confronted
evidence that he might be
"burning myself out." He
went into a brief monologue
about the difficulty of hiring
and keeping good help and
the 7-day weeks and long
daily hours required in the
restaurant business. He
used to have 30 employees,
now eight. "It's a lot easier
to manage."
He concedes ending week-
day breakfast and lunch
hours made it look like the
Kettle Ho was transitioning
into a night club, particu-
larly when he applied for a
"live" entertainment license
(Karaoke), a request he
quickly withdrew when the
complaints started pouring
into the licensing board. But
he still has a substantial
menu and new and "better "
cooks, he said.
He also said at the hear-
ing that 55 percent of his
business was now liquor, 35
percent food and 10 percent
everything else. But during
the interview he explained
those figures would be just
the opposite , 55 food . 35
liquor and 10 percent every-
thing else if he just reopened
for breakfast and lunch.
The Kettle Ho is the only
show in Cotuit's insular
peninsula and at least one of
the aggrieved said residents
misses the quiet breakfast
and lunch restaurant.
Meanwhile , Patchin says,
he's trying to "keep the
peace. "
