The Runaway Jester

**The Runaway Jester: Club & Restaurant**, also know as **The** **R.J**, is the primary restaurant and nightclub chain under Kingdom Industries, LLC. The franchise will serve in similar characteristics to Dave 'n Busters and Dicks' Last Resort, and will be an international franchise.

## History

The first idea for the franchise was in February - March 2021, with 'Western Nevada Steakhouse', a restaurant chain owned by then-friends Nicholas King and Matthew Scott, who were planning to own a Longhorn-inspired Steakhouse chain. Though Nicholas felt differently to the idea of traditional restaurant, and given his eccentric personality, crafted more ideas, and with Scott out of his life in July 2021, and finally in November 2021, the ideas crafted by him and Elizabeth King received no questioning, and a new, redeveloped idea was proposed, since July.

### Concept of Runaway Jester (November - December 2021)

The idea of a franchise of restaurant, designed to attract party-goers, teenagers, and more upbeat crowds had been developed. The first location, where a former Sagebrush Steakhouse occupied, is set to be the first in the chain. During the November - December planning, a name for the franchise was underway, with Elizabeth King suggesting 'The Royal Kitchen', 'The King's Kitchen', which had been initially considered by the duo Elizabeth and Nicholas King, but Nicholas considered adding "Jester" to the name, given the place is supposed to be representing a wild, comedic, eccentric environment, and later on, on December 7th, the name 'Runaway Jester' was developed.

The duo began experimenting more with locations, management, and other amenities the franchise will have. The idea of a nightclub restaurant, with intentionally obnoxious and "unprofessional" staff, and a bar to support the club. A stage to support comedy-shows, karaoke and live-music performances was later decided, and Elizabeth King, along with Saige Yount, were appointed as recipe-specialists, leading the recipe teams, and both baking specialty items, such as cakes, brownies, etc, as Elizabeth wishes to attend culinary-arts to aid in the food designs and recipes, whilst Yount prefers to have a hobby in baking.

## Features

The Runaway Jester will feature an intentionally obnoxious staff, whom will usually roast the customers, throw napkins at then, insult them, crack jokes, fight eachother, and entertain the customers with humorous and intentionally unprofessional antics. However, the food and beverages will still be given to the customers with high-quality, and delicious food and drinks. The locations will have Neon and LED lighting. Some of the RJ's will have arcades, in which a card with a certain amount of money placed on, is used to play games, and a dance-floor will be present near the stage, which is used to host live-entertainment, such as comedy-shows, roast-sessions, karaoke nights, or live-music performances, and there will be a bar, with pool and beer-pong added. Artificial torches will be present to add to the atmosphere. TV's will be around for those intending on watching sports.

## Types of Food

While breakfast will be around within certain items, the preference is lunch and dinner. The primary food will be pizza, wings and steak, the pizza following the recipe for a McPizza, after the licensing for the item is purchased by McDonald's, and the wings being with a custom recipe, along with the steak. Other items, such as lobster, crab, porkchops, ribs, and barbecued items are in place, with many others. Gator bites and catfish are also a potential addition to the menu, and desert will have a large array of sweats, with ice-cream, shakes, cakes, and Dippin' Dots.
