Pizza hut. But not delivery. If u can find any of the old full service restaurants with the salad bar and video games. yeah, guilty pleasure and throw back to the childhood for sure.

Pizza Hut is starting to get rid of the buffets. Restaurants that used to have them don't anymore.

Like 7 or 8 years ago I would go to the Pizza Hut buffet in Palatine. DJMooreIsFat always made sure there were fresh pies out everytime we showed up to eat.

Pizza Hut. Worked part time as a delivery driver and cook for them when I was in the Air force, just outside Luke AFB in Phoenix. Good part time job. Made decent money. Still like them.

Depends, its like any other place. You have a break even point and must succeed it. When you franchise, you are buying the name and the organizations procedures that are in place. Some franchises will not allow you to own if you do not meet certain standards. No franchise is guaranteed, but if done correctly and properly ran should bring in a hefty profit every year. The name is the biggest seller. Its hard to build a name, but everyone knows certain names and will eat because of said name.

I don't think HRI is a good idea. Personally, I don't get the concept. I ate at one a few years ago, the place was almost empty on a Saturday night. Additionally, I couldn't tell any difference between the pizza they served me and the ones I buy frozen from Jewel. And lastly, the cost was higher at the restaurant, much higher. So yea, count me out for the franchise idea of HRI.

But some other pizza joints its probably a good idea. I'll be first in line if Pequods ever goes that route.

Here is how my ideal pizza would be:

Crust: a Home Run Inn style crust
Sauce: red sauce with oregano, basil, garlic and olive oil
Cheese: a blend of mozzarella, parmesan, cheddar, romano and asiago.
Toppings: Sausage and mushroom

Yeah, I'm not big on home run in; specially at a restaurant.

If I had the money(mega millions!!) id buy an aurelios franchise somewhere cool. Where lots of people come by my shit.

And id fine a super old oven, because they taste da best!!

Roughly, how much can franchisers of such establishments make per year if restaurant is successful?

Favorite pizza.

easy for me.. I have two.

Pequods


Aurelios

Why? Because of love both of their sauces and I'm a big pizza foodie. I still come back to aurelios every time(always ask to put it in old oven) and when I'm in chicago I refuse to go anywhere but pequods. Last time someone sad lets go to UNOs I wanted to slap them.

What's yours?

I'm a big pizza deal guy.

Best coupons in the industry are Pizza Hut, Papa Johns and Dominos.

I once got a large 5 topping pizza, cheesesticks and a 2 liter from Pizza Hut for $9.99 (free delivery).
