White Castle, Fargo ND?
-
Bosten Market too... that shit is good!
I suppose I am biased to White Castle becuase Harold is my hero, but I do like sliders. Kevin and I got lost in the twin cities one time and ended up at a white castle.
Chipotle is awesome too, qdoba just isnt the same...

By the way, jim if you get a chance you gotta check sonics out, i heard there is one in sioux falls?I heard that Rapid City is getting one also. They say the old Hardee's are switching to Sonics. Not exactly sure, thats just the word I have heard

the whole 24 hours thing isn't that great. when mcdonalds on 8th street was open 24/7 the only days that they would make a profit was fri and sat with to little people to get everything done. the only reason they stay open on fri-sat is customer service/convience. and breaking even was $480 sales from 11pm-5am.
if you would be serious on it start and slowly expand the hours to see if it is worth the extra hours

this is probably the stoner in me talking...but i love those delicious little scrumtious flavor filled burgers and when i taste them i cant help but buy a crave case......(30 burgers in a briefcase looking box)...hellz ya...

I personally think White castle is gross. I think you are better off with any other fast food restaurant than White castle. I dun know if you have noddles and Co. up there but it's pretty good. oh and Jim...just because asian people made a movie about it doesn't mean it's good!

i know someone who knows the owners of "qdoba" on 45th. The "fishers" own it of FF fishers and leasing dealership, i heard they started it? -
so sonic seems to be the prevailing idea. i'll have to do some research and figure out what the initial investment figures are, franchising is effing expensive for a large chain. we aren't a rich family but maybe with some other investors it could be doable. werd.

Okay... I've had Chipolte in St. Cloud; and.. "Loved it.." Had Qdoba's once; it seems the same, but for some reason I remembered liking Qdoba's so much better.. I had White Castle before, it was okay.. But the meat seemed a little weird IMO; like one person said; not something you can eat everyday... But not bad on price; cheap low on price, and the burgers or sliders or w/e I had, they were like w/ no topping.. Guess a lot of ppl don't like it.. Never had Sonics; but I bet that would be a good one to try.. Just don't choose to double up on something else already in town.. It's nice to have options..

Processing fee is a straight up $30,000
You need to invest atleast $710,000 to a max of $2.3 million.To open 1 store, your net worth have to equal to that store, Sonic does not offer financial aid.
Minnesota is a not a market area for Sonic, for there it is impossible for you to franchise.
Your mom should try Subway, cost of franchise ranges from $150,000 to $300,000. You only need to invest 50%, the rest can be put on loan with Subway inc.

It's weird how those #'s(Prices/$) Work out.. I mean, In my opinion of a Franchise, you would want to expand.. Not make it hard to expand.. I've seen Sonic's in smaller towns than Fargo; so they must be able to pull through..
What about a Long John Silvers? <- never ate there; but it's something not in Fargo yet...
And I hear people are all about Jimmy John's (Sp?*) But I know they have one in Grand Forks..(heard rumors of one coming anyways... could be myth!) Many Many Possibilities...
