The odds of a second season, says my cloudy crystal ball, are limited, so you may have to accommodate a few minor cliffhangers if you decide to watch.

That isn’t quite what happens to our team, but the Chicago Tribune’s review of the restaurant in the third season finale’s cliffhanger was neither stellar nor a disaster.
