I think a more viable alternative would be regional cuisine. I would go to a real southern food place, a cajun restaurant would be good and how about some good New England seafood.

As far as being off campus, it would have to be very special for me to do it.

One person's "negativity" is another person's reality. The high failure rate is real and doesn't lie. And any business man or woman worth their salt will not mind hearing about the risks. A good business person will want to be informed of both positives and negatives. Then they can make an educated decision by weighing one side against the other. But there is one exception: They might not care to hear about the negatives if they intend to use other people's money. And, by the way, wasn't that what was suggested in the opening post?

Just put the comments under a microscope because there will always be some valid points that, for most of the commenters are impenetrable walls, but are in reality just challenges. There is absolutely NOTHING that is impossible given the right preparation and execution.


AND Hard work..and oh yes....MONEY! And knowledge of running a restaurant and managing staff too would help.
