Your proposed restaurant would be the least popular place in the entire city. It would probably be vandalized, picketed and protested by the community, and that's assuming you could ever get the necessary permits to open such an establishment seeing as there are many Armenians in the local government and bureaucracy who would likely do everything they can to hold up your applications. Take some friendly advice (from an ethnic Greek, by the way) and locate your business in friendlier territory.<a href="http://www.telescopebuyingguide.com/galileo-telescope.htm"> birdgirl</a> Before you even begin to consider all the legalities of purchasing or leasing a business space in Glendale, you should be aware (as I am sure you probably already are, and are simply making a joke) that Glendale is teeming with Armenians.

I would first go to an immigration lawyer and talk about it. I would also come and see the site, as a tourist to make sure you can have a good location, cater business for that location etc... Also you can check 's forums for Turkish people living in the US.<a href="http://www.qualitylawnmower.com/self-propelled-lawn-mower.htm"> usourselvesandourcats</a> If you open business in the US, and it circulates enough capital, you can get a permit to live here and conduct your business.

Turkey is my adopted country so the food is my adopted cuisine too. The key to a restaurant is Location, Location, Location. Having great food is next. Plenty of parking is important. But most of all, you must have quality staff. Hire people you can trust but verify always. You may have picked Glendale for your own reasons, but we can chat about that later. Yes you can sign a contract outside the USA. But always sign pre-construction/bulk sale contracts on a contingency basis. The contingencies should be; Successful Liquor license status Building permit status Food Establishment License Bulk sale transfer Waste-water permit. Successful independent third party inspection Contingency means that if you can't get the aforementioned that the contract is null and void and you get your deposit back. It is more cost effective to do it yourself, and to learn the process. Basically if you plan to stay in Paris you will require someone on location with "power of attorney" in the USA. This will just make the process just that much faster. During the process it is a shame to have to wait 24 hours for a signature for something simple. There is an order to restaurant design; First you decide on menu and number of seats Then the kitchen equipment profile Then the restrooms, hostess stations then the bar and finally the space planning for tables Hire the best manager you can find a manager can make for break a business. Also do your market research, and make sure the area would be open to a Turkish restaurant. Glendale is very conservative so really think of why Glendale. Here is as sample of regulations adopted July 1, 2007 and yes, Ipek has earned the ten points, but she probably deserves something of more substance.
