    Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
    accepted accounting principles, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10
    of Regulation S-X. These statements should be read in conjunction with the
    consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
    Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

    In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal

2.  Franchise Store Activity
    ------------------------

    The following is a summary of dual-concept franchise store activity during
    the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively:

</TABLE>
    As of June 30, 1997 and 1996, the total number of free-standing franchise
    stores were 42 and 44, respectively.

3.  Net Income (Loss) Per Share
    ---------------------------

    Net income (loss) per share are based on 6,440,414 weighted average shares
    outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 6,417,226 for
    the three months ended June 30, 1996. Net income (loss) per share are based
    on 6,440,414 weighted average shares outstanding during the six months ended
    June 30, 1997, and 6,355,538 weighted average shares outstanding during the
    six months ended June 30, 1996. Outstanding stock options and warrants are
    considered common stock equivalents. The assumed exercise of common stock
    equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect in 1996 and therefore have
    not been included in the number of weighted average shares outstanding for
    the net income (loss) per share calculation in any of the periods presented.

    In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
    Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128) - Earnings Per Share which
    supersedes Accounting Principles Board No. 15 - Earnings Per Share. SFAS 128
    simplifies current standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) and
    makes them comparable to international standards. The new standard will
    eliminate the presentation of primary EPS and require the presentation of
    basic EPS, which includes no common stock equivalents and thus no dilution;

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
    requires entities with complex capital structures to present basic and
    diluted EPS on the face of the income statement; and eliminates the modified
    treasury stock method of computing potential common shares. SFAS 128 is
    effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after
    December 15, 1997 with earlier application not permitted. Upon adoption, all
    prior earnings per share are required to be restated.

4.  Income Taxes
    ------------

    At June 30, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforward for
    federal tax purposes of approximately $12,846,000 which, if unused to offset
    future taxable income, will expire between 2008 and 2012, and approximately
    $6,656,000 for state tax purposes which will expire if unused between 1999
    and 2002.

    As of June 30, 1997, the Company has continued to provide a valuation
    allowance to offset the related deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty
    of realizing any benefit therefrom. The Company will continue to evaluate
    the need for a 100% valuation allowance.

5.  Subsequent Event
    ----------------

    On July 22, 1997, Fidelity National Financial, Inc. ("Fidelity") purchased
    1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock from the Company's principal
    shareholder and 3,500,000 common stock purchase warrants from such
    shareholder and another unrelated party for an aggregate of $5,800,000 in
    cash. Of the 3,500,000 warrants purchased, 1,500,000 are exercisable at
    $5.00 per share, 1,000,000 are exercisable at $7.00 per share, and 1,000,000
    are exercisable at $7.50 per share. On a fully-diluted basis, the common
    stock and warrants purchased represent a 41% interest in the Company.

    In conjunction with the purchase, three of the company's directors have
    resigned which included both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
    Officer of the Company. Key officers of the insurance company have filled
    the director and officer vacancies.

 Results of Operations

  The Company's revenues are primarily derived from restaurant operations at
Company-owned stores and franchise royalties and fees received from franchise
stores.  Total revenues for the second quarter of 1997 increased $177,108 (15%)
to $1,375,087 compared with revenues of $1,197,979 during the same period in
1996.  Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased $231,343
(10%) to $2,586,494 compared to $2,355,151 for the same period in 1996.

  Revenues from restaurant operations for the second quarter of 1997 increased
$38,533 (5%) to $786,740 compared with $748,207 for the corresponding period in
1996.  For the six months ended June 30, 1997 revenue from restaurant operations
increased $15,706 (1%) to $1,524,239 compared with $1,508,533 for the same
period in 1996.  This increase in same store revenue was primarily attributable
to increased radio and print advertisements during the second quarter of 1997.
As of June 30, 1997 and 1996 the Company owned 7 stores.

  Franchise royalties earned in the second quarter of 1997 increased $21,516
(8%) to $300,447 from $278,931 for the second quarter in 1996.  Franchise
royalties earned for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased $70,609 (14%)
to $574,933 from $504,324 for the corresponding period in 1996.  This increase
in revenue was primarily due to the increase in the number of dual-concept
franchise stores in operation.

</TABLE>
  The total number of free standing franchise stores were 42 and 44, at June 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively.

   Franchise fee income increased $47,512 (72%) to $113,793 in the second
quarter of 1997 from $66,281 in the second quarter of 1996 primarily due to 13
dual-concept franchise store openings during the second quarter of 1997 compared
with six dual-concept store openings for the second quarter of 1996.  Franchise
fee income increased $29,799 (21%) to $174,502 for the six month period ended
June 30, 1997 from $144,703 for the corresponding period in 1996.   During the
six month period ended June 30, 1997 there were 18 dual-concept franchise store
openings compared with 32 dual-concept store openings for the six month period
ended June 30, 1996 consisting of several test stores, which were not required
to pay franchise fees.

  On an aggregate basis, cost of sales and occupancy and other operating costs
expressed as a percentage of sales for the Company owned restaurants have
remained substantially unchanged during the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods in 1996.   Cost of sales from
restaurant operations (food, packaging, payroll and other employee benefits) as
a percentage of sales were 65% and 68% for both the second  quarters of 1997 and
1996, respectively and for both the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  Occupancy and other operating costs from restaurant operations
expressed as a percentage of sales were 27% for both the second quarter and six
month period ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

  General and administrative expenses decreased $161,874 (29%) to $399,687 in
the second quarter of 1997 compared to $561,561 incurred in the second quarter
of 1996.  General and administrative expenses decreased $405,152 (33%) to
$822,932 for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 compared to $1,228,084 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996.   The decrease is primarily due to a general
reduction in payroll expenses, legal and consulting fees, and other costs
related to the development of the dual-concept business.

Impact of Company Expansion Plans on Operations

  The management of the Company anticipates that continued expansion of the
dual-concept restaurant business will improve the Company's liquidity and
profitability by generating additional franchise fees and royalties.

Effect of Inflation

  The Company's food and labor costs are subject to inflation.  Many of the
Company's employees are paid hourly rates related to the statutory minimum wage,
therefore, increases in the minimum wage increase the Company's costs.  On
October 1, 1996, the federal statutory minimum wage was increased to $4.75 per
hour.  This increase in the statutory minimum wage has not had a material impact
on the Company's current operations.  On March 1, 1997 the California statutory
minimum wage was increased to $5.00 per hour.  At June 30, 1997, approximately
35 of the 62 hourly employees were paid the California statutory minimum wage.
In addition, most of the Company's leases have escalation provisions based on
the consumer price index and increases in store revenues.  Most leases also
require the Company to pay taxes, maintenance, insurance, repairs, and utility
costs, all of which are expenses subject to inflation.  The Company has been
able to offset the effects of inflation to date through small price increases
and economies resulting from the purchase of food products in increased
quantities due to the increased number of franchise stores.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of
$2,102,419 at June 30, 1997 and $1,774,494 at December 31, 1996.  The increase
in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments is primarily due to net
income from operations.  Management believes the Company's cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to finance current and
forecasted operations and obligations.
