Why you should read Food for Thought
Philip J. Romano is "an idea man at heart." The innovative restaurateur launched multiple successful U.S. franchises, including Fuddruckers and Romano’s Macaroni Grill. He discovered that people would pay for his concepts, so he kept thinking and opening new restaurants. In this chatty, inside-flavored autobiography, he shares his creative processes and the principles that guide his business decisions. He knows the hot dinner business cold, and doesn’t mind saying so. getAbstract dishes up this light, entertaining read to those who are interested in entrepreneurial success stories or to anyone who wants an insider’s view of the restaurant business.
