Feel for Burgr Hous. The owner tried to do what we all want to do and start something for yourself, but he should have stayed closer to what he knows or start out smaller.
@Mr.Clean19 no doubt, but the lockout suggests they didn’t even make July rent
The Burgr Hous owner couldn’t even afford to buy an “e”.
While sad, the Eater article noted that the owner walked away from 22 years as a civil engineer because he “was tired of it” and that his only restaurant experience was eating in “thousands” of restaurants.
.
If he was burned out on engineering, he could have just taken a big nap (repeated daily) and not lost a pile of cash on this flame-broiled mess.
Could have simply bought shares in McDonalds if being an owner was what needed to be scratched.
