After 3 years, Arby's closes shop
By MARK ST.J. COUHIGSequim Gazette
After three years of activity on West Washington Street Sequim, Arby is no more.
When they locked up this week, Dennis and Michelle Bush left a number of disappointed customers and some clueless owners.
On Friday, a sign of Michelle Bush was displayed on the front door: "The economy is still bad caused Dennis and me to make the difficult decision to close our doors."
While some fans of the local restaurant mourned the loss, local real estate broker Vic Quinet, who with a partner rented space to Bush, is in trouble. Quinet says he wants to put this behind him, but he is upset by rumors that Bush had been forced into bankruptcy by Quinet and its partners.
"We tried our best to work with these people," he said. "We have lowered their rent," he said, after Bush has gone bankrupt.
"They left us holding the bag for many. They owe us tens of thousands of dollars.This was our retirement and everything is gone. "
In October 2010, First Bank filed a lawsuit against the Bush, saying the couple's company, DMB Enterprise LLC dba Arby, was five months failed to make payments on their loans for small businesses to $ 536,428. The loan was secured by the assets of the Arby's restaurant.
The equipment and furnishings of the restaurant - Lock, Stock and barrel - will be auctioned online October 25 to 27.West Auctions, which is handling the sale, would not confirm who owns the equipment, saying that it is simply a "secured creditor".
The equipment, which includes tables and chairs, a workbook and a convection oven Blodgett Mark V, must be purchased as a lot. The starting bid is $ 5.
The equipment is unrelated to the franchise agreement. (For more, see www.westauction.com/auction/index/id/627)
The formwork is Arby was the latest in a series of financial woes strike in the bushes.
3 bedroom house to the couple's Route 499 in Port Angeles Vogt will be auctioned at the courthouse in Clallam County on Oct. 14 following his entry for non-payment of the mortgage.
Repeated attempts to contact the Bush by telephone and e-mail were unsuccessful.
Buying a commercial convection oven - eG Forums
Welcome to the eGullet Forums! These forums are a service of the Society for Culinary Arts & Letters, a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to advancement of the culinary arts. Anyone can read the forums, however if you want to participate in active discussions you must join the Society . If you'd like to receive our news and update emails, please become a NewsGullet subscriber . I need to make a purchase in the next two weeks (moving into new space) and while the used market hasn't come up with anything, I'm looking at buying new and of course, the best prices are from online vendors. One local dealer is willing to come very close to the pricing advertised on Big Tray for a Blodgett SHO, but is that SHO model worth buying? And what of these other manufacturers? Some are probably good to stay away from (because they are prone to breakdown), while others may be unsung heroes - this is where your opinion will help. You, however, need a thoroughbred. With a convection you have no control over botom/top heat, you will get lop-sided muffins and cakes from the fan blowing in only one direction. You can, of course, work with these problems--baking on sheet pans lined with bbq bricks to "simulate" bottom heat, stopping mid-way and reversing sheet pans/cake pans to stop lop-sided tops. And of course, everytime you open that oven door, you get a fan-assisted blast of hot air heating up your kitchen..... . The simpler the controls, the fewer problems you will have. Don't get suckered in by "steam buttons". All this is, is a solenoid that sqirts water on the squirrel-cage fan, which flings droplets all over the oven's cavity. Water needs energy to convert it to steam, and this energy comes from your oven's heat: Once you press the "steam button", your temperature will drop dramatically, and needs almost 10 minutes to recuperate. Choose a brand that has a reputable dealer in your area. I can't stress this enough. Even with a good brand things can go wrong. If the factory authorized repair guy is 120 miles away, you're out of luck for at least a week untill he makes to your place. If you use a non-factory authorized repair guy, odds are he won't have the proper parts in stock so,it's between a Blodgett SHO which I can afford new; OR used DFGs. The local dealers are telling me to go with the DFGs because they are sturdier (?
