Small-town resident debates offering new business owner advice after he takes over their local deli and begins making renovations and changes to the beloved store, causing residents to stop shopping there: 'Now I go in, and it's empty'

Sometimes it can be challenging to differentiate between whether advice is coming from a place of care or a place of criticism…But perhaps it could be coming from both, simultaneously. This community was a huge fan of their local deli and all those who worked there. Its atmosphere, its appreciation towards regulars…it was just a place where the town locals could gather and feel at home. But unfortunately, small-town changes do happen, as rare as they may be. This deli owner decided it's time to hang up his apron, and sold the bakery to a man from out of town! 

Now, to put it into perspective for you all: Imagine the upheaval that would be unleashed if Luke from Gilmore Girls sold his restaurant to 'some guy' from Hartford. And then suddenly 'some guy' started making all these changes to the menu, the interior, and couldn't quite grasp what their 'usuals' were referring to… Yes, now that you have the visual chaos going on in Stars Hollow, well, it's sort of like that. These small-town locals don't know where to place themselves, yet we all know the one place they seem to be avoiding…However, one of the local women pities this new deli-owner and wants to offer him a piece of advice that could flip the fate of the deli around!
