                NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              (UNAUDITED)


NOTE A -  PUBLIC OFFERING

          In July, 1998, the Company completed the issuance of an
          additional 1,000,000 common shares and 1,000,000 common stock
          warrants through a public offering, resulting in net proceeds
          (after deducting issuance costs) of $3,759,433.  The proceeds of
          the offering will be used for acquisitions, sales and marketing,
          working capital and product development.

NOTE B -  REVERSE SPLIT OF OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK

          On February 14, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company
          authorized the reverse split of all issued and outstanding shares
          of Common Stock so that each one hundred shares outstanding
          converted to one share.  Accordingly, all share and per share
          amounts have been restated in the accompanying condensed
          financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended
          December 26, 1997.

NOTE C -  PREFERRED STOCK

          On March 1, 1998, the Company issued 700,000 shares of Preferred
          Stock to certain officers and directors of the Company.  Each
          share of Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of Common
          Stock at a conversion value of $5.00 per share.  The conversion
          price can potentially decrease should the Company meet certain
          revenue and pre-tax earnings incentives over the next three years
          and in the event the Company does not attain any of the
          incentives, each share of Series A Preferred Stock then
          outstanding shall automatically convert, at no additional cost to
          the holder into one (1) share of common stock at the end of five
          (5) years.  The Preferred Shares have been valued by the Board of
          Directors at $5.00 per share based on the stock's conversion
          value.  The Preferred Shares are entitled to vote on all matters
          that the Common Stock is entitled to vote on the basis of one
          vote per share.

NOTE D -  RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS; EARNINGS PER SHARE

          The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
          Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".  The objective of
          SFAS No. 128 is to simplify the standards for computing earnings
          per share (EPS) and replaces the presentation of primary and
          fully-diluted EPS with a presentation of basic and diluted EPS. 
          Implementation of SFAS No. 128 did not have any impact on the
          Company's calculation of EPS.

          Net income per common share was computed based upon 1,130,000 and
          130,000 weighted average shares outstanding during the three
          months ended December 25, 1998 and December 26, 1997,
          respectively, and 963,333 and 130,000 weighted average shares
          outstanding during the six months ended December 25, 1998 and
          December 26, 1997, respectively.  Dilutive earnings per share was
          not presented as the potentially dilutive warrants, convertible
          preferred stock and stock purchase options are anti-dilutive.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
             FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW

The Company experienced substantial growth in operations with three new
accounts including the opening of a new recreational division to manage
food services at entertainment facilities.  Substantial development costs
were incurred to lay the groundwork for the next four recreational
facilities expected in 1999 and 2000.  Substantial sales efforts by the
Company's sales and marketing department in Massachusetts and New Jersey
are producing new and larger accounts that will open in the third and
fourth quarters of this year.

The Company's merger and acquisition programs are establishing contacts
with many new target companies, and are building relationships that will
produce strong acquisition candidates.

During this quarter the Company updated and expanded its communication
technology allowing all units to be connected on-line to the corporate
office.  This was a necessary investment to streamline operational
reporting and insure year 2000 compliance.

Also during this quarter, the Company's marketing department developed and
produced high quality glossy brochures that promote all of the Company's
competitive advantages and will be used for mass mailings and sales
efforts.

Finally, the Company elected to terminate the letter of intent with
Corporate Dining Services, Inc. to pursue larger acquisition candidates.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net revenues for the three months ended December 25, 1998 were $2,027,690
as compared to $1,777,973 for the three months ended December 26, 1997. 
Accordingly, revenues increased $249,717 or approximately 14%.  Net
revenues for the six months ended December 25, 1998 increased $572,137, or
17%, when compared to the six months ended December 26, 1997.  The
aforementioned increases are primarily due to the aggressive program of
adding new facilities and maximizing revenue from existing facilities.

Cost of goods sold increased $333,894 and $623,434 for the three and six
months ended December 25, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  This increase can
be attributed to the developmental costs involved in opening the Company's
new recreational division.  In opening the new accounts, the Company
incurred marketing, inventory, and other start-up expenses.  Additionally,
certain one-time expenses were recognized from a major customer's
reorganization.

The Company incurred a net loss of $295,450 and $289,390 for the three and
six months ended December 25, 1998, respectively, as compared to net income
of $66,585 and $97,455 for the three and six months ended December 26,
1997, respectively.  This loss in the 1998 periods is due primarily to the
high labor costs involved in opening the new accounts and recreational
division along with the training and systems development required to
automate each of the Company's field locations.  Lastly, legal and
accounting expenses incurred in connection with potential acquisitions, and
increased insurance costs added to the loss.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The company's liquidity as evidenced by its current ratio has continued to
improve.  The current ratio at December 25, 1998 and June 28, 1998 was
8.43:1 and .90:1, respectively.  The proceeds from the public offering is
the main contributor to this improvement.

       FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

Net cash flows for the six month period in 1998 resulted in an increase in
cash and cash equivalents of $2,880,530.  Operating activities resulted in
a cash outflow during the period of $1,114,190 primarily relating to the
payment of liabilities upon receiving the proceeds of the public offering.
Purchases of equipment to support the rapid expansion of facilities under
management amounted to $103,609 and the Company's financing activities
resulted in cash inflow of $4,098,329 due primarily to the receipt of
proceeds from the public offering.

Cash flows from operating activities in the 1997 period resulted in a cash
outflow of $30,530.  The outflow was primarily due to the need to finance
a build-up in accounts receivable.  Cash flows from investing activities
for the 1997 period reflected a net investment in new equipment of $59,667
to support the expansion to new facilities and cash flows from financing
activities resulted in a net inflow of cash of $16,757 due primarily to the
Company obtaining a $75,000 demand note payable.  The net effect of all
these events resulted in a decrease in cash of $73,440 for the 1997 period
and achieving and ending cash balance of $66,681 at December 26, 1997.
