Hiya, again...

So with the help of a few friends, I just might be able to pull off my very own restaurant! We've found a nice build, a fantastic food serving system, some land for the most part, and we will be having custom furniture made to match our decor.

By the way... People actually *do* go to restaurants in SL, I have worked at three. So no calling me crazy!

Seeing as we don't have enough money for *everything* yet, I am wondering if anyone out there would like to invest in the Chocolate Mint Restaurant (or simply just make a donation because you're nice!). Currently, we need the following:

Our build costs L$1999. I'm pretty sure I can afford this after a while.
Our (possible) land tier is L$1895 and it is 4096 sq. m. (to account for the build and the prims we will need).
Our custom built furniture will probably cost around L$3000.
Dining animations (that are a definite NEED) cost a total of L$6000.
Our food system costs L$3995.
Estimated total - L$16889 (oh wow...)

So what can I offer you in return of investing or donating? That's actually a really good question. Um... Well our upper level can be used as a place to hold events or nice luncheons or whatever... Right now I have someone who will use it for events usually. Errr, you can has free meals? I really don't know, sorry, but shoot me ideas.

I would just really appreciate some help, because this is actually like a dream to me and I really don't want to see it end badly... So yeah, if you can help out, I will be eternally grateful!

Thankies thankies!

I could be interested in helping with this. But, of course nothing in life is free, I would be looking for some kind of return on my investment.

If you have anything in mind, let me know. If it sounds good, we might be able to work something out.

Hello, I am always looking for ways to increase my business portfolio but need some more information before I invest anything. Go ahead and drop me a note card. Let me know what kind of traffic your expecting, long term plans, and any other information you feel I should know. After looking over the notecard Ill get back to you with what I can do and we may work out an aragment.

I've spoke to Ocean at length. It is a good idea, and having some other people come in on it would be helpful.

Which style of restaurant do you have in mind?

I would be interested in perhaps a few of us working together/investing, but would like to know a little more about style and an idea of location etc - as patmamu mentions.

I would be interested in learning more about your idea. With my old avi I had considered opening a place of my own like that.
