Our franchisee did outdoor (patio) even w/heaters in the winter time.
And hung on. He also leased the last Denny's location (before they tore
it down) and installed a Spaghetti Shop franchise. It's still under the
same ownership - but it's now a "Beef O'Brady's" sports bar franchise.
No one ever accused Joe Rupnik of being afraid to "take a shot". Bv)=
We've still got a Perkins ... which started life in Cincinasty as
"Perkins Pancake House" (pre-dating IHOP)
I wish we had a Waffle House or a Toddle House. We're forced to make do
with a Memphis based Huddle House.

SD> I was thinking of the same tagline!
You know what they say about "great minds" (Not talking about us, of
course.) Bv)=
