Once they start making more on the trademark name stuff they sell on the side
beating your head on a wall serving the public does not seem like the best
way to make money anymore.

It's the egg rolls that killed Kahiki.

And dam if it was a franchise the corp takes like 9% to 11% every week, the rent on that
place would start at Ten thousand per month and that's a low low guess.
Plus new leases take a percent of what you make as well.
NOW if you had some money after all that the government is going to bend you over
and take what you made and more!
All this after you put like a quarter to half a million dollars in the place just to open.

Don't know why anybody would do the franchisee thing.

Trader Vic's franchisee took the money and run

Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run
