Ive thought about opening a night club or restraunt some day.

If I opened a restraunt I would go with an old school italian place, like something out of a mobster movie.

As for a bar or nightclub, I go slightly upscale. Id love to have a bar that looks like a restraunt, with booths and couches for people to sit, and still space to move around, and a dance floor.

The only problem is that where I live, if a bar get popular, it gets ghetto, then it becomes unpopular.

I've thought of a restaurant, more my scene, but both bar and restaurant have the same trap of seeming like a great thing to do until you actually try and do it, and then realise its a stressful nightmare with a monstrous failure rate. I don't think its worth the stress unless its a dream of yours and you have the actual know-how to make it work instead of vague ideas.

Wings. You need excellent wings if you own a bar. Pizza is also good. Lot of bars around here serve thin crust pizza of various kinds. It's excellent.


Also, owning a sports bar would be a great time.

I was thinking owning a great authentic Chicago style pizzeria would be great. I just went to chicago for the first time a few weeks ago and the pizza was the best I've ever had. If I moved it to another state wheres theres nothing like it around you'd probably do pretty well.

I always wanted to and it would be a good moneymaker. People drink when they are happy, sad, or just wanting to get drunk. It would be a lot of fucking work though and I don't like the idea of drunk assholes tearing shit up, fighting in my establishment, and puking and pissing all over the bathroom for starters.
