Book Review of Food for Thought: How the Creator of Fuddrucker's, Romano's Macroni Grill, and eatZi's Builta a $10 Billion Empire One Concept at a Time

reviewed on + 170 more book reviews


FOOD FOR THOUGHT by Philip J. Romano. Over 200,000 people pay daily homage to the genius of Romano. They do so by eating at Fuddruckers, Romanos Macaroni Grill, eatZis, Shuckers or Cozymels. Romano developed and has successfully operated and marketed each of these national restaurant concepts/chains. In his book he shares the reasons for his success, which include placing service first over profit and getting people to work with you rather than for you. Sounds simple, but you must be doing it right to build a $10 billion restaurant empire. Nicely written and interesting background for all of us who tend to eat out more than at home.
