Freddy_Krugerrand: Here are some pictures from facebook. They’re from a few months ago. There’s a few more pictures on the wall now, but not too much has changed. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs040.snc3/12735_172074587340_171970417340_3448800_7269786_n.jpg...

I guess this thread was more interesting when it was the search for a pizzeria. Now that the search is over, the buzz is gone…or maybe it’s just my fault with the lack of posts. Either way, business has been okay since we’ve taken over. Things are out of season in the area, so #'s have...

Paradox_Pizza: To keep a long story short, my search for a pizzeria stopped when I was offered to buy the pizzeria where I had been working. The owner was the same guy I worked for in NY and have known for many years. It was far too good of an opportunity to pass up. I knew the numbers the...

No crazy stories to speak of yet. I had to handle a Friday night a bit shorthanded a couple weeks back because one of my employees couldn’t make it in. That left me telling the phone girls pickups would be 35-40 minutes. I wasn’t too happy about that, but at least it was busy enough for me to...

4/20/10 Over a Month Later… I’ll go against the norm and make this post short. We own the pizzeria now, I regularly work 12 hour days, but I still love it. It’s hard work as expected, but I’m very lucky to have had this opportunity. Now that I’m’ finally settling into a groove, my wife and I...

3/9/10 Home Sweet Home - Vegas Recap We’re finally back in Florida. Took a little longer than expected with a plane delay on one of our connecting flights, but we finally made it. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the wedding was absolutely incredible. We had just the right amount of people...

Posting from Vegas via iPhone. We’re married! Wedding was incredible. I couldn’t have imagined things turning out any better. The chapel did a wonderful job and took some amazing pictures. I’ll be sure to post some when I got home this weekend. We arrived to the Expo today around noonish...

I’ll be using Marsal Brick Ovens.

2/23/10 - I’m About to Catch One of Those Breaks In my opinion, due diligence and hard work are the keys to succeeding with a small business. However, beyond even that, for things to REALLY work, I think it’s important to catch a few breaks. Whether it be the ability to borrow money, or to be...

Sorry for the lack of posts, but it’s been a hectic week. It appears interest has diminished in this thread anyway as the last five threads are created by me, haha. So the wedding is on. March 1st, 11 AM at the Little Chapel of Flowers. Our immediate families will be attending, and it appears...

Not much more for updates, but the blog is finally up: http://blog.foodservicewarehouse.com/from-new-york/ Whenever I blog, twitter will post it on the FSW twitter page located here: http://twitter.com/FSWarehouse This is still where I intend to spend most of my time. All my messages I...

Updates will likely be minimal in this upcoming week as our trip to Vegas is ironed out. I don’t really have much immediate progress being made at the moment in regards to my pizzeria quest, so there isn’t too much to say anyway. Once we have our week in Vegas planned out, I’ll be back to...

Anyone from the forums going to attend the wedding on March 1st? haha We’re not going to have any family there. We decided on such short notice, and being expensive to get out here, it won’t be fair for some to make it and others not so it’ll just be the two of us.

Yeah, I think the whole Cirque du Soleil’s is a must for any Vegas trip. I don’t think she’ll let us leave without watching.

2/10/10 - Marriage and Pizza Expo? Let’s do it Baby! royster13: Haha, I don’t think she’s planning on quitting her job. At least it’s good for health insurance, right? Maybe I can get her after the 9-5 grind and on weekends so she can join me in the crazy 80+ hr work weeks. wa dave: Oh trust...

Does anyone remember when I was joking the other day about how I said to my fiance “we should go to the Pizza Expo in Vegas!” and she jokingly replied “sure, if we get married!”? Well, this might be one of the craziest things I’ve ever done before, but tomorrow we’ll be booking hotel and...

Food coma combined with an early day at work caused me to postpone my planned trip to check out a bunch of plazas. I’ll be at work 10+ hours tomorrow too so I’ll be putting the trip off till Wednesday.

Tomorrow I have another 5 plazas I’m interested in checking out, mainly in the Sarasota area before I head to work around 2ish. I’ve mapped out a route and if all goes well (meaning I don’t sleep in too much because of the food coma I’m about to fall into) I’ll be on tomorrow night to post my...

pizza2007: Hey hey hey, don’t rain down on the guy who can type quick. There’s certainly a difference between between including detail and being verbose. Fortunately because I’m a quick typer I don’t have to sacrifice clarity to save time. A post like this a 30 seconds for me. In a situation...
