Bronzetti's ends Columbus Club venture to refocus on Eagles location
One of the biggest challenges of owning and operating a restaurant is keeping it clean and rodent-free, especially in an older building. This is the top priority of Bubba Bronzetti, owner of Bronzetti's Pizza & Kitchen after a recent routine health inspection at the restaurant's location at South Framingham Fraternal Order of Eagles lodge , 55 Park St, found 10 violations, including rodent droppings and a mouse sighting. All of the violations have been corrected and Bronzetti did not have to shut down, but soon after, he announced the termination of his restaurant's brief partnership with The Columbus Club, where he was operating a catering business. Bronzetti said the two developments are not directly related. The inspection occurred at the Eagles, not the Columbus Club. But he acknowledged that trying to operate at two locations stretched him thin and diverted his attention from the restaurant at the Eagles, where Bronzetti’s has operated for about four years. "I think the Columbus took my focus away from the Eagles, where it began to kind of slip a little bit," Bronzetti said. Bronzetti and fiancée Melissa Hanna had concentrated on building the Columbus Club operation while employees managed the Eagles restaurant. More: USA

Family-Run Since 1956, This Mendon Steakhouse With A Fireplace Keeps Massachusetts Steak Lovers Coming Back For Prime Rib
Some restaurants chase trends every few years. Others pick a lane in the 1950s and simply stay in it, one plate of prime rib at a time. In the small town of Mendon, Massachusetts, there is a steakhouse that has been run by the same family since 1956, and people still drive long distances just to sit down at its tables. The portions are big enough to turn dinner into tomorrow’s lunch, the bread basket has a loyal following of its own, and a fireplace adds old-school character to the dining room.
