Your food for thought ideas are needed

Shed .....that would make for a happy world.....except that nobody wants to eat that stuff. Can you think of a single health food restaurant that has done well in the lakes region?
At the VK, we offer several healthy entree's and people tell us they appreciate it but they amount to a very small amount of sales.
Maybe it would work in a larger city but I think it would be a recipe for failure in the lakes region.

Burgers or Burritos? Both would be great. Just PLEASE do good burritos (Burrito me is a great example). New England burritos have a tendency to be BAD! Also, check out In-n-Out burgers - most profitable fast food per sqft in the country. They don't franchise but its a great concept!

How about something that would cater to boaters in the summer and deliver to the public docks? Simple, great sandwiches and salads, burgers etc.

Here's the www.burritome.com website/menu and apparently the Flying Burrito Brothers in Waterville Valley have no website which is not unusual.....like why even have a website. After all, one cannot eat or taste the website ....what Flying Burrito has is an over-sized menu with prices and descriptions in their window.

Burrito Me is conveniently located just across from the www.laconialibrary.org ... another good reason to visit downtown Laconia....and, by the way, downtown Laconia, Main St, has three very nice retail stores, side by side up by the end near the Winnipesaukee River: Bootlegger's Shoes, Laconia Antiques, & either a Family Dollar or a Dollar Tree store....it's a blur in my memory as to which?

BURRITO THAT! ....possible name for new Mexican take-out....or maybe 'Meredith Mexicali-Mexican Food' .... hey, burrito that, amigo!
