The one in Berwyn has gone through multiple closing / rebrandings. He also had a failed music label amongst other things. His reputation as a business man is pretty poor.

But he probably could of picked a better town for this restaurant than Berwyn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 We went to BHB in Berwyn once. One of the more terrible restaurant experiences I’ve had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonxctf Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 surprised no one commented about KW's son having a "special assignment" role. There was also another Williams who had a position out in Lisle, but I dont think she's related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happen to know someone who has had some dealings with one of his ventures, and they were not high on him or his abilities from a professional business level. Frank was a great ball player, but that doesn’t make you good with money or a good business man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
