Businessman learned ropes at McDonald’s
Frank Chalfont has a secret that only a person who has worked extensively with onions would know. Among top chefs, it’s probably not a big revelation. But to novice cooks, it’s a good trick.
“Breathe through your mouth,” Chaflfont said. “If you breathe through your nose, you’re done.”
As a McDonald’s owner/operator, the 48-year-old has chopped his share of onions, tomatoes and lettuce on the road to success. This month, he celebrates the renovation of his location on South Bay Street in Eustis, which first opened in 1973. As a franchisee, Chalfont owns the most McDonald’s in Lake — six of 13 in the county.
That may not be surprising given that Chalfont was practically raised in a McDonald’s. Over the years, his father was the owner/operator of 14 McDonald’s locations in Alabama and Tennessee. Chalfont was just 5 when one of his first jobs at the fast-food restaurant was to open the door for patrons. He remembers when French fries were hand cut in the restaurants.
