I am starting my new location (after 9.5 years I’m finally getting a 2nd store!) It’s in a very small town and I am trying to do it on cheap. I have an extra set of Lincoln 1832’s that are 3-phase. I just found out my building is single phase and it would cost $15,000 to get 3-phase service. My...

My family and I will be in the Orlando and Daytona areas 10/2 - 10/9 any members I can stop in and visit and eat some za? -Crusher

When you opened your 2nd store, how did you set it up for taxes and accountant. I am currently an LLC and have an accountant who does my taxes and payroll. I use Quickbooks to record everything and at the end of the year give a thumb drive of my QB file to the account. I can’t decide how to set...

I am working on a 2nd store that is very small. I planned on making dough at my 1st store, balling and traying and taking it to the 2nd (8 miles away). I don’t know if this is even legal. My other option is to bite the bullet and buy a mixer for store 2, but with no walk-in I wondering how my...

Thanks George, I’ll try to get it scketched up. the total building is 1600sqft. I plan having to expand some of the kitchen a little.

We had been buying preshredded cheese for the 1st 8 years of business. Last year I switched to using a shredder attachment on my hobart and started saving around .25 a pound. It was a little hard getting used to the extra prep, but not too bad. Around the same time I started opening for lunch...

Hi Guys, I am working on setting up a 2nd location in a small town. The kitchen is pretty small, about 500sqft. It is also designed really weird in a triangle shape with alot of wasted space. If you have pictures or layouts of how you set up in a small space, I’d really appreciate it. I’m used...

Hi everyone, some of you may have heard if follow me on Facebook that I was in a motorcycle accident last week.I shattered both wrists and am now resting and trying to get back healed and able to work. I had three surgeries on my wrists, 3 plates and 22 screws. I’m trying to get my phone set up...

why in the middle of summer am I getting cases of unrippened tomatoes? Shouldn’t they be at there best right now?

I am having issues with people claiming they asked off after the schedule is done. For the last nine years our system has been to fill out a little form and put it in an envelope that’s next to the schedule. Apparently I need to do something that has a copy for them or something. Does anyone...

I spend $3000-$4500 a week with one vendor, this could possible save me a ton. (maybe enough to pay the payments for on my new Harley). I’d be curious to see if eventually it gave you an average price for items that everyone is paying. Right now we have no idea of the guy down the street is...

When I first opened I had a Movie Gallery, Gas Station, and Karate Studio next to me. Now, I have a Gas Station, U.S. Cellular, A church, and the karate studio is being remodeled into a physical therapy office. There is also a new building next to mine with a 24 hour gym, chain family salon, and...

I’ve been thinking of a business like this for years. I’m glad someone finally did it. I might give it a try, even though I currently only use one vendor because they treat me good and I hate the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors and deliveries.

I’ve always used our regular four to hand stretch and toss our dough. I’ve been playing around with semolina instead. I also did a mix of the two. I think my favorite is the mixed flour and semolina. What do you use?

Daddio, do we need to rsvp?

Bodegahwy, this is pretty much exactly his we run our kitchen. We don’t have Kitchen Displays( yet, I’m hoping someday Arrow POS will work with iPads to do this like POSLavu does). Whenever an order is submitted it prints labels and to the kitchen printer, if it is for delivery, a receipt prints...

GotRocks, I ordered the shoes from Journeys.com. We took them to a local embroiderer and she couldnt do it so I slapped on some stickers I already had. They probably won’t stay on long.

Myself, my wife & a manager of ours will be attending. We come in on Monday and leave on Saturday. Look for us in our new fly kicks!
