My favorite one is the Heart Attack Grill. Those over 350 lbs eat for free. HEART ATTACK GRILL... Home of the Double Bypass Burger!
Only problem now, is that my cat wants to move... |

You are unlikely to get rich in the restaurant business. You are buying yourself a really hard job; expect 16+ hour days and no time off.
My parents owned and operated an Italian resto in California many years ago. Despite it's success, even having a full bar with it's popularity, it barely broke even. Overhead is high, and so is staff turnover. Most restaurant owners are in it for the love of the food, you don't do it for the money. Kinda like teaching, I suppose.

The infomercial gag on Heart Attack Grill's website is hilarious. The job application is too.
EDIT: They're also the most ruthless restaurant I've ever seen when it comes to intellectual property. They brag about getting competitors shut down on their licensing page.

Do you know anything about ian boer? What makes me really happy is that the prices are really good just like the warranty. | Good luck Groov1r - build it up, operate it well and flip it for profit if you can

You know they keep 2 sets of books,at the end of the day,they rerun the tape!

We have some awesome Mexican food in California and the very best are run by immigrants who can't even speak English. America has a very diverse food selection, fortunately unlike other parts of the world where I've been.

Well, I'm not sure about that, but years ago when I was at the Bellago buffet in Las Vegas, I noticed this guy dressed in a uniform who was staring me down non-stop. It made me so uneasy, I actually asked one of the waitstaff to tell the guy to go away.
You should have seen the look on that guys face when the waiter went over there and told him to get lost because he was making diners feel uncomfortable... |

I have seen it in Chinatown restaurants,someone actually stand not far from your table and watch you.
In Japan,there is all you can eat with a time restriction,like 45 minutes.
