Its abundantly clear that Wilmington, N.C. is: "top heavy" in fast food chains -- and more are going to hit the auction block -- or belly up - like O'Charlies has just recently all to the commercial Realestate Brokers and local banks delight . When the 'big boys' move in -- as with restraunts like: Golden Corral, Hibachi Supreme Grill, ect. -- smaller franchises can not compete with the sheer volumn of food in which these big franchises shell for any length of time -- out at very affordable prices and employ Hispanic, Foreign, & Chinese Alien Labor -- thus they can force the smaller guys out of business. Example: There is a Golden Corral positioned at each end of College Rd. and a Waffle House at almost every intersection. This also leaves the: Ethnic Restraunts also up & down there on notice !
So - Whats the Solution to all this? Ask Your Current Mayor & City Council Members at their next meeting.
