Good luck; that's a tough business. Make sure there are no local zoning changes in the works that could screw up your plans. If there aren't any, and if you're the first to open in a hot new residential or mixed-use area, then you should do just fine as the visionary groundbreaker. And keep up the quality - that's what brings back repeat customers...
