               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
               ------------------------------------

          OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          -------------------------------------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION

          The Company's working capital at December 31, 1995 totaled
$405,701, compared to working capital of $180,492 at March 31, 1995. The
increase in working capital resulted primarily from the refinancing of
certain short-term notes payable with long-term debt and cash generated
from operations.

          Cash provided by operations totaled $1,034,301 for the nine
months ended December 31, 1995, compared to $1,002,443 for the
corresponding period of fiscal 1995. The primary reason for the increase
was a decrease in depreciation expense. Cash used to repay indebtedness and
acquire assets amounted to $485,250, net of proceeds from notes payable and
refinancing of two mortgages aggregating $2,848,684. Cash amounting to
$335,341 was used to repurchase common stock.

          Management of the Company believes that the cash and cash
equivalents on hand at December 31, 1995, together with funds provided by
operations, will be sufficent to fund the Company's existing operations.



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
  Revenues
  --------

          Revenues increased $52,211 (1.3%) and $403,999 (3.5%)
<PAGE>(6)
for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995, respectively,
compared to the corresponding periods for fiscal 1995. These increases
resulted primarily from a $22,505 (.6%) and a $342,592 (3.1%) increase in
revenues from restaurant sales for the three months and nine months ended
December 31, 1995, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of
fiscal 1995. There were eleven Company-owned restaurants at December 31,
1995.

          Revenues from franchise operations increased $42,206 (27.9%) and
$86,407 (19.5%) for the three months and nine months ended December 31,
1995, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 1995,
due primarily to the full period of operations of two new franchised
restaurants opened during 1994.


  Costs and Expenses
  ------------------

          Costs and expenses increased $99,863 (2.7%) and $398,454 (3.7%)
for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995, respectively,
compared to the same periods of fiscal 1995, primarily due to the
operations of the Company-owned restaurants. Cost of restaurant sales as a
percentage of restaurant sales was approximately 62.6% for the three months
and 61.9% for the nine months ended December 31, 1995, respectively, and
61.1% and 61.4% for the corresponding periods of fiscal 1995. Occupancy
costs increased $9,625 and $24,574 for the three months and nine months
ended December 31, 1995, respectively, compared to the same periods of
fiscal 1995. Depreciation and amortization decreased $15,603 (7.9%) and
$24,937 (4.5%) for the three months and nine months ended December 31,
1995, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods
<PAGE>(7)
of fiscal 1995, primarily as a result of certain assets becoming fully
depreciated and to fewer capital additions in the current period. General
and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 24.8% and
24.2% for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995,
respectively, and 24.3% and 24.0% for the corresponding periods of fiscal
1995.


  Income From Operations
  ----------------------

          Income from operations decreased $47,652 (18.9%) and increased
$5,545 (.8%) for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995,
respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 1995, due
primarily to the increased revenues from restaurant sales and costs of
operations and decreased depreciation.


  Other Income and Expense
  ------------------------

          Other income increased $1,927 (14.8%) and $11,824 (34.3%) for the
three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995, respectively,
compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 1995, due primarily to the
fluctuation of interest rates on the investments held by the Company.

          Interest expense decreased $4,006 (4.1%) and increased $14,182
(5.1%) for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1995,
respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 1995, due
primarily to the fluctuation in the prime interest rate and other index
rates which are used to determine the rate the Company pays on certain of
its notes payable.
<PAGE>(8)
  Income Taxes
  ------------

          The Company's effective income tax rate remained constant at 34%
of income before income taxes for the three months and nine months ended
December 31, 1995, compared to 38.6% and 38.5% in the corresponding periods
of fiscal 1995, due primarily to the effect of graduated federal rates and
alternative minimum tax credits.
