I have an extra lincoln 1000 up here in Manhattan you can borrow. It runs on propane and I never use it. You are more than welcome to borrow it for an extended time

Thanks. Slice operation in a college town. I cant tell you the number of people that try to charge $1

I have two locations. One is a dine in, seating for 100 and take out. The second is a smaller location in a bar area. I am currently paying 2.6% at the large location, and 3.6% at the bar area. No manual entry at either location. Avg. ticket is about $15 the main location, $7 at bar location...

We use marsal as well. The claim of no hot spots is just that, a claim. We have two MB-60. Some areas on the deck are a full 100 degrees hotter than other areas. I spoke with Marsal about this. Their response was, that simply cannot happen. They are good ovens, but the no hot spot claim is...

How are they paying you? I would run from this one

And whatever the code officer tells you, get it in writing. I have opened two, and have learned the hard way, what they tell you on the initial walk through and what they want in the end are completely different

I take my comment back. Sorry, use the search function. Ton of great info here

We use the fontanini. The ground sausage does not look like dog food. We also offer the italian links. We slice them up as well. It is a big seller and makes us different from the chains

We do a 20" pizza. Its not that big of a deal. Boxes and screens are pretty easy to find at that size. Above that and you will have problems. The only complaint we get with the 20" pizza is it will not fit in a standard fridge. It is ordered all the time. Also a pizza this size is good to make...

The downtown store is pretty much all families. Plus the sound system is an old muzak system. Nothing impressive. It really is just background music. That is the problem with the sonic system with direct tv. None of the stations have any consistency. The classic rock station plays anything from...

For those of you with Dine In. What music service do you use. We used to use XM for business through Direct Tv. However they switched to Sonictap which is awful. Any suggestion?

Thanks for the advice. I will certainly go through my insurance.

Had our busiest weekend ever. In all the commotion one of my employees cut himself. This is the first time this has happened in the two years I have been open. What is everyone’s experience with this. He needed 5 stitches in his hand Do you just pay the bill yourself out of pocket? If you...

Great Post Streeza. I wanted to do the same thing, to sell to college students in the bar area. I actually found it cheaper and easier to open a second small store than go the truck route. Most smaller cities don’t like this, as it takes away from property taxes and keeps places from being rented.

It must depend on the area. Coke is cheaper in Kansas than pepsi. There service is not as good, but you can get away with more as they leave you alone. They will both give you coolers, units etc. Play them against each other and see who will give the most.

I am not sure of the work force in south florida. But if you plan on opening a deck oven pizzeria and the workforce that knows how to use them is limited, Be prepared for mistakes. I am kansas. I use both a deck oven and conveyor. Most people have never seen a deck oven, let alone used one...

What is on your smoked salmon pizza? We have salmon for our salads. Never thought about putting it on our pizzas.

Might seem like a stupid question, but I dont eat sour cream or cream cheese. Does the sour cream change the flavor much?

I need a way to apply this through a squeeze bottle. We have used single serving packets, but the cost is too much and just a mess. The cream cheese in a container is too thick. Anyone have a way to thin it out?

I am going to disagree with pizza 2007 on this. Coming from Money does not make you lazy, just as being poor does not make you a hard worker. I was given a opportunity to open my own shop with family money. I worked my ass off, took advice from everyone I could, and with luck and that work, it...
