I don't have a name for it yet, but I'm thinking of opening a place that specializes in a fusion of breakfast and lunch. I'm thinking of calling it something like "Blunch". I don't have a lot of experience in the sit-down market, but I had a few years of experience behind the counter at in a few difference fast food joints. I mean, a fryer is a fryer and a grill is a grill. I just need to make do without a counter between me and my customer. I figure this won't be a problem. After all, if I can convince somebody to upgrade from a small to a large (without even mentioning the possibility of a medium size), hosting will be a piece of cake. I'm not doing this alone, but my partner doesn't really want all the attention. Let's just leave it at this: she's good to go. So it all comes down to this: I just need some money. I could go to the bank, but I would rather not tie myself down to traditional funding methods. I figure I would ask you, GBS. My history with the bank is...complicated...so I couldn't exactly go to the bank for help without incurring some extra fees. And let's be real here: I need as much money as possible. If you're willing to donate, let me know here. I also need someone to set up the website (I'm not very good with these things), and someone to help me finalize the menu. Any takers?

Hot Dog Bar. It's a lovely dive bar, but they have lots of hot dogs on hand right at the bar for like $1 so you can eat them while you drink.

dad gay. so what posted:i guess i could make the website if no one else wants to That sounds like an excellent menu item but I'm not sure that name suggests the flavor fusion between Lunch and Breakfast. Any way you could work "blunch" into it? I'm trying but I feel a little fried.

I'm trying but I feel a little fried. i wrote some code for this earlier actually you could probably do something like "dunk a dill pickle, blunch" or just "dunk a dill pickle, [null]"

you could open up a graveyard too and call it "dunk a dill pickle, the graveyard" it sounds easy and its a more complicated business model than you think but the main things you need are some land outside of town and a shovel and you can kind of scale from there.

There's a restaurant around here that serves fries and that's about it but the gimic is it comes with one of many favours of sauce to dip them in. I hope it's out of business now.

A real loving bad pickle. And I don't need your peoples' kind of support. In fact, I won't stand for someone living in sin, like you, making accusations against me. Your boss will be hearing from my partner.

Bar idea: buy a warehouse and cover the ground in astro turf and put out a bunch of lawn furniture. Also, use projectors to show sports games on every wall. It will be like being a party outside in someones back yard except every way you look you will see sports.

you could start a marketing campaign with the tagline "Pickles, the original breakfast treat" and then you can kind of reinvent dunk a dills as a breakfast food. just do pickles in hot dog buns for the lunch part and say "pickles, the original power lunch" and then that works too. Added benefit of being vegan friendly and you can market this too depending on where you live. Alternatively try stuff like "pickles, the original green meat" and tshirts that say "Pickle Power".

How about a farm to table style restaurant on an actual farm? Where patrons have the opportunity to order a steak, from a cow that they select when they walk in. Then the server would go out into the fields and lead their cow to the slaughter house and an hour or two later deliver 2 filet mignon's to the Couple's table. Super fresh steak! There would also be a gift shop / butcher where people could just buy the extra meat off the farm animals on their way out the door. It would be awesome.

just a straight up meat locker where they give you a machete and you have a go at various hanging carcasses in competition with other patrons for the best cuts

Ideas: In Hong Kong one of the best whiskey clubs is hidden and you need to go on the website to get a keyword for the doorman. The door is unmarked and hidden behind a bunch of stalls with people (bouncers) in front, selling poo poo. So like a 1930 mob movie you need to go past the stall, show your ID to the man, and knock on a door 3 times and give a password to a guy. And then you are led to an underground whiskey room like a mob speakeasy with a live blues band. In New York there is a pizza shop in the front of a bar, at the back of this small italian pizza shop is a night club that can only be accessed by putting a quarter in an old payphone and the wall opens up to reveal the main room. In London there is a exclusive nightclub which is a former bond trading floor. Like the second Matrix you walk into a bank building and you are given a keycard, the bar is open all times after 12 pm. You and your crew will walk in with a normal group and everything is normal, until you enter your "office" and it turns out the reception area leads into a dance floor with 100 db soundproofed walls, bottle service and top mainland house DJ's. Countless stories of "trips to the bathroom" will naturally happen and you will have a very motivated (office drone) population to tap into, literally. Just make sure the windows are reenforced should a bar fight breakout and one of those nice chairs goes out a 40 floor drop during trading hours. In Tokyo there is a bar which is stocked with over 400 kinds of drinks and is just a single long bar and the scotch bar bottles literally hold up a wooden plank which is the bar. Food is free, whiskey aint cheap. Russian vodka bar, Toronto. Go to a Ukranian/Russian/Chinese village and buy the entire bar, it'll be like 100 bux at current FX. Pack the bar right down to the sketchy toilets into a freight box and send it to your city. No matter how tacky it is, people will come if the drink and 'authenticity' feels right. Vodka bar/ice lounge: Ice is expensive but pays for itself in climates where people will pay a premium for air conditioned and/or exclusivity. Most ice companies will give you cut rates if you are a constant/repeat customer. Just have a good drainage system on the dance floor/mainpath and you should be set for 5 years or so (1 bar cycle). Sidebar. Sublease the space between two buildings. Hire an ad agency to make a viral message on campus and host a perma-beer tent setup for a few months. Literally your setup is a plank, a liquor license, a few kegs + plastic chairs. Blow the rest of the cash on hiring the local talent and cutting the beer sales with the bands if they max the capacity each night (think Uber surcharging before Uber was a thing). Close the place for a month, then bring it back at the peak of summer with a large act as the 'opening event'. Repeat every summer. I personally enjoy the "cowboys" theme for bar ambiance. Waffle House. Someone already said the meat locker. This is actually a good idea so long as you remember to throw a weightscale and control the theft (shrinkage) by checkpointing to the grill. Keep the place chilled and limit poultry for health violations. My bar.... Go to a local university and steal all the furniture from common rooms. If a patron screws or pukes on the couch, throw it out on the street so lineups have a place to sit while waiting to get in. For better Irony, find a going out of business sale and buy the entire furniture set. Police Auctions are also good for random poo poo.Trash day is Sunday anyways. Go to an old office company and buy a heavy bench and get a local carpenter to extend it out. Buy a microwave and put 1 can of campbell soup on a ledge to meet liquor compliance laws. Whitewash the walls each week. Every patron who comes into the bar can pay 15 bux for a sharpie and write whatever they want on the bar/walls/washroom, whatever. Spend the rest of your cash on live music, and get top bands to book or be the afterparty destination. When you get a Tier1 band (better then Nickleback or Sum41) showing up nightly to play for free, close the bar and pay off your loans. Post on the internet when someone asks for good ideas in a horrible business model. Invite the goon to the grand opening in 2016 (and bankruptcy in 2017). At all costs stay out of novelty or 'historic' buildings. Never get into an achor tenant or keystone clause. Your staff are all going to have sex and steal the float each night. You will be shut down by the police at least once, do not panic at the disco. Nobody ever brings drugs into your bar --- and that is your official and legally confirmed story. Enjoy.

Ideas: eat a bag of dicks. I've never had a bag of dicks. Kind of want to see what all the hype is about, and I'm not the only one. So maybe a bag of pickled dicks as an option. Like those chicken fries Burger King is plugging now, but dicks.

Saucy Minx A restaurant that focuses on the best part of dishes: The sauces, dressings and gravies that cover everything. You want a bowl of pepper gravy with just a few teaspoons of potatoes? A big cup of cucumber sauce from those Greek pita things that no one pronounces properly with a couple a baked to a crisp slices of lamb meat to scoop it up? A creamy thing of Ranch dressing thickened up with fresh baked croutons? A 'family size' 32 ounce to-go cup of sweet and sour dipping sauce to nurse on the way home? You've can have all those and more at Saucy Minx. We won't judge what you like to eat here.
