Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
- ------------------------------------------------------

     (a) Previous Independent Accountants

          (i) On February 27, 1998 Macheezmo Mouse Restaurants, Inc. (the
          "Company") dismissed its prior certifying accountants, Price
          Waterhouse LLP ("PW").

          (ii) The reports of PW on the financial statements of the Company for
          the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimers
          of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
          scope or accounting principle.

          (iii) The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company's
          Audit Committee of the board of directors and ratified by its entire
          board of directors.

          (iv) During the two most recent fiscal years and through the date
          hereof, there have been no disagreements with PW on any matter of
          accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
          auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to
          the satisfaction of PW would have caused them to make reference
          thereto in their report on the financial statements for such years.

          (v) The Company does not believe there is any information required to
          be reported pursuant to Item 304 (a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B
          during the two most recent fiscal years and through the date hereof.

               The Company has authorized PW to respond fully to the inquiries
          of the Company's successor certifying accountants concerning the
          subject matter of each of the circumstances which PW believes may give
          rise to a event reportable pursuant to Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of
          Regulation S-B.

          (vi) The Company has requested that PW furnish it with a letter
          addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or
          not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter will be
          filed as an Exhibit to an amendment to this Form 8-K within 10
          business days of the filing of this report.


                                                                     Page 2 of 4

     (b) New Independent Accountants

          (i) The Company engaged Cacciamatta Accountancy Corporation ("CA") as
          its new independent accountants as of February 27, 1998. During the
          two most recent fiscal years and through the date hereof, the Company
          has not consulted with CA on items which: (1) were or should have been
          subject to SAS 50; or (2) concerned the subject matter of a
          disagreement or reportable event with the former auditor (as described
          in Regulation S-B Item 304 (a)(2)).
