Welcome to the forum!!

I was stuck one time out in Baton Rouge because of a Cat 5 storm was coming strait for us. The only place open to eat was The Melting Pot!!!
I love that Fonduu!

Great place though, the storm droopped to a Cat 2. Boo I love bad storms.

I am happy to see that you and your bro are able to start your own Business.

The tuffest part will making sure you both work 100% I would hate to see two great brothers split because of work!!

Good Luck! I know you guys will do just fine!

Don't forget my Outdoor Business Card Holders will get you new business.

Thanx!
Artie
