Fran O' Brien's Steak House & Hilton Hotels
Opinion
The Hilton Corporation - Where a Steak is just a steak- Matt
Background: This started with Have You Ever Been to Fran O'Brien's on a Friday Night?
I've been tracking a lot of conversations (well, some are turning into arguments) about the Hilton cancelling the lease of Fran O'Brien's. Many believe it to be simply business as usual. Others see both pros and cons of either keeping Fran O'Brien's in the Hilton family or relocating it somewhere else in DC.
It's an emotional issue for some of us. In Fran O'Brien's, we have a successful restaurant business run by Vietnam Vets - the generation that served before mine - that ensures that our wounded young men and women have a place to go and have a nice steak dinner on a Friday night, free of charge. It's a very welcome and supportive place for our wounded troops run by very caring people. I've been there. So have many of you.
