[00:05.15]The Charcoal Pit
[00:07.21]Erika was worried.Her restaurant was losing customers. The new restaurant across the street now had more customers than she did.
[00:07.26]She had even seen some of her own customers going to eat at The Charcoal Pit.What was she going to do?
[00:13.90]One thing she could do was revise her menu.Maybe not everyone wanted hamburgers.She might add omelets and casseroles.The menu might help.
[00:24.45]Perhaps the decor of her restaurant was dated.She could redecorate the place.Erika decided to consult an interior decorator
[00:33.93]who could give her some new ideas.A face-lift for Burger Haven would certainly lift her spirits.
[00:40.49]In fact,she felt better after thinking of some improvements.Erika would fight to make her restaurant the most popular one in town.
