Billy has a "Schatzi"

Sorry if I have been neglect in my duties reporting about the trial and tribulations of my friend Billy, but its been hectic around here.

You see Billy likes ice cream and all the trappings that go with it and has been missing the Schatzi's place since it closed two years ago. Hardly a week goes bye when we don't get a query from him about why the Schatzi's store is sitting idle. He has suggested that I reopen it...."No way" has always been the response....."What do I know about ice cream, fast food and all that" Well you know its not what you know, but more importantly who you know. So the idea was to partner with someone who did. Enter Dr. Phil.

Phil has been successful in the restaurant game and during a recent conversation, I asked him if he was ready for a new challenge. In about one weeks time the new Schatzi emerged from the rubble. Phil barks out instructions faster than the average brain can record and works at cyberspeed in making things happen.

Phil, the mystery lady and I partnered in the venture. We were open Maifest weekend and it seems that all who visited were pleasantly surprised. The menu is varied, the food is quality and the ice cream is yummy. Sounds like the right formula.

Notables who were there to experience the opening, were the likes of Billy's Godparents, Billy's
hero...The Hopper and his misses, and my niece Nicole, to mention a few.

Of course Billy was there too....ice cream all over his face most of the time and a bonus synergy was discovered. You can hook the iron lung in parallel to the ice cream machine and eliminate that portable power supply. So Billy was behind the scenes most of the time....the only reminder was an occasional screech of the belt pulley when both kicked in at the same time.

Stop in sometime.
