FRANK
BRUSCO
BY KRISTIN ACCORSI
When Frank Brusco set out to coach his kids'
soccer practice in June 2015, he never imagined
he would end the day as a restaurant owner. Yet,
that's exactly what happened.
It was a normal day of soccer practice followed by a
quick stop for food for Frank and his kids, who were
hungry, hot, and tired. Aer calling in his order ahead
of time and despite an empty restaurant, Frank was
displeased to find himself waiting on his food to
be ready. "e owner walked by," Frank shares,
"and I said, 'buddy, what's going on? It's not busy;
my kids are hungry.'" e owner candidly
responded, detailing an understaffed kitchen and
the general challenges of running the business. A
successful commercial printing executive at the time,
Frank "asked him some business questions. 'How long
is your lease? How's business? Where do you stand?'"
