Ryan Braun Tavern and Grill

[Matt Breen]

One of the first things you do in marketing is say 'what's your unique selling proposition' - what makes you different, what sets you apart, etc. With that in mind, he should use his name. It's a commodity. Leverage it, especially while it has value. The product will need to have something beyond his name to ultimately succeed, but it's a selling point for investors and consumers. He's wise to use it, even if it does have a narcissistic edge to it.

If their is such a thing as a St Louis style Hot Dog, it better be on the menu. Even a Chicago style Hot dog would suffice

Either should be accompanied by subtle smack-talk on the menu.

There is! They used to serve a St. Louis dog at Great America years ago and it was a hot dog with BBQ sauce, shredded cheddar cheese and bacon bits. It ruled.

They can't serve Joaquin Andujar on a bun.... or can they?

*bump*

 

Was just talking about this with someone yesterday. Does anyone know if this place actually opened yet, or when it is supposed to? All the references I find online are from back around October.

I was in LG last week, and it didn't appear open yet, but the building has had ALOT of work done onto it.

[BREWERPRIDE]

I understand that Braun wants to be a business man and invest his money wisely, but I hope he doesn't overboard with his money. 90 dollar t-shirts and fine dining are two things most people don't go after when the economy is how it is. Granted it seems to be picking up, and who knows how much he actually put in, but if every 6 months theres a new story about Braun doing something businesslike, it could come back to bite him. Just a thought.

You have to realize that Braun lives in Cali though, where people are LOADED. Also, Lake Geneva has a ton of rich people also.

Thanks for the update, I appreciate it.

Sign out front says "comming soon: Ryan Bruan's Tavern and Grill"

[AJAY]

It looks like Braun will be opening a restaurant in Milwaukee too. This is exciting.

Yeah, sounds like the Lake Geneva one is lagging behind, but now they're going to have this one open on Opening Day. Pretty cool.

[LaprilOne]

Wonder if they will have a "Ruben" Quevedo, which is a Reuben with triple cheese.

[LaprilOne]

Or a "Ryan's Braunschweiger."

[Bikeage77]

What about a Vuko-wich?

[LaprilOne]

"Soup of Day" You never know what it is, but it usually gets cold after the first three spoonfuls.

 

Anglel "Solome Sandwich" on rye with mustard.

 

Boston baked "Bush" beans.

[Bikeage77]

My cousin heard something about Braun planning a Brookfield location too....I said this earlier, but I'd hate to see Braun throwing his money around if everything falls apart...To play it safe, wouldn't you want one restaurant to succeed before considering opening a third? I'm no business man, but this should be covered in 101.

[Nottso]

I don't know exactly where I read it, but I read where Braun actually puts little to none of his own money into these ventures.

I would like to see a Royal Veggie Burger on the menu http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Yeah, and you have to eat it with your nose up in the air and both pinky fingers out.

Feature drink: The Cory Hart "dribbler". So weak you will never get your date to second base.

 

Prince Burger: Fried tofu, grilled portabella mushroom, Swiss cheese, tomato, onion, lettuce on a whole wheat bun. No beef, but still a homer.
