For many years a Big Boy franchisee, today Frisch's is the exclusive owner of Big Boy in Indiana, Kentucky, and most of Ohio and Tennessee and has no affiliation with Big Boy Restaurants International. In August 2014, there were 121 restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.〔 ''Note: This unit was added after September 2013 and increases the total to 121 restaurants.''〕 Frisch's is the oldest, longest surviving Big Boy "franchise", excluding Bob's Big Boy in California, which was the original Big Boy restaurant and franchisor. Frisch's previously owned numerous Golden Corral restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia but after closing six underperforming stores in 2011, Frisch's sold the remainder in March 2012. ==History== In 1905, Samuel Frisch opened the Frisch Cafe in Cincinnati, Ohio. Five years later he closed the café and moved to the Norwood suburb of Cincinnati soon opening another café there. Success brought a new building in 1915 for the restaurant then known as Frisch's Stag Lunch. He continued to operate the cafe until his death in 1923. Three of Samuel's sons, David, Reuben and Irving, continued operating their father's cafe after his death. In 1932 Dave Frisch sold his interest in Stag Lunch and opened his own Frisch's Café. Although Frisch's Café was a success—a second location opened—the effects of the Great Depression led to bankruptcy and both units closed in 1938. Frisch was in business again when Fred Cornuelle, a local businessman provided money for a new restaurant and in 1939 the Mainliner opened on Wooster Pike in Fairfax. Cincinnati's first year-round drive-in, it was named after a passenger airplane flying overhead into nearby Lunken Airport. By 1944 a second Frisch's restaurant opened, designed to resemble George Washington's home: Mount Vernon. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frisch's」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
